Bender on Privacy and Data Protection
This version is available in Lexis Digital Library for Students and Faculty of Maine Law.
As you grapple with difficult privacy and data protection issues, you won't want to be without Bender on Privacy and Data Protection. This timely resource provides a framework to help you make sense of important questions in this rapidly-evolving area of law.
Designed for the busy practitioner, the book is divided into four parts: (1) federal law, (2) state law, (3) international law, and (4) issues that warrant a special focus, such as privacy policies, behavioral advertising, search engines, cloud computing, the cost of privacy measures, and RFID (radio frequency identification).
Modern Privacy & Surveillance Law
This version is available in Lexis Digital Library for Students and Faculty of Maine Law.
This book has been re-titled Modern Privacy & Surveillance Law. Formerly titled Privacy and the USA PATRIOT Act, the law analyzed by this treatise has evolved beyond any one statute. Since the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, aspects of constitutional, international, national security, military, criminal, immigration, civil rights, privacy, customs, commodities, securities, financial, transportation, business, employment, contracts, health, education, agriculture, administrative, procedural, property, tort, and other areas of law have blended into a new, challenging, ever-changing, and bleak American jurisprudence: The law of surveillance.
Privacy Law in a Nutshell 2nd 2014
This e- version is available in Lexis Digital Library for Students and Faculty of Maine Law.
The Privacy Nutshell briefly reviews the historical roots of privacy, and then examines each of these U.S. privacy statutes and regulations. Virtually all governments and businesses face privacy considerations as technology continues to evolve. Legal issues related to privacy are exploding on the U.S. legal scene. The EU has a long history of a strong regulatory privacy regime. The U. S., however, follows a sectoral approach to privacy, whereby Congress responds to each privacy “crisis” with a new statute and set of regulations. This sectoral approach has resulted in a unique series of privacy rules for different areas of society. The Privacy Nutshell is an excellent introductory guide to the legal privacy world.

The Law Student's Guide to Doing Well and Being Well
The ABA and most state bar associations have identified a wellness crisis in the legal profession, and called for educating students on how to better cope with the challenges of law school and practice. At the same time, students must learn how to maximize their brain health so that they perform well in law school and on behalf of their clients in practice. The same way musicians would tune their instruments, or chefs would sharpen their knives, law students must sharpen their minds. This book aims to help students "do well" in their ability to learn, and "be well" in the process, by exploring the deep connection between brain health and wellness.
