No one can read this fine book without being infuriated and alarmed, challenged and-ultimately-enlightened. A real contribution to democratic discourse." -Philip Jenkins,author of Beyond Tolerance: Child Pornography on the Internet "Tunnell has written an insightful volume that is clearly written, well organized, informative, and interesting." -Choice "An informative and thought-provoking book. Tunnell locates drug testing within its broader social context and in so doing demonstrates the importance of a dynamic and interactive approach to a complex topic. . . . Necessary reading for anyone interested in technology and social control." -Gary T. Marx,author of Undercover Police Surveillance in America "Reports on the Orwellian invasion of our privacy by pre-employment and on-the-job surprise drug tests carried out by government agencies, the military, and business firms. The book also provides a comprehensive review of the bustling market in products and tactics to beat the testing regimens. Pissing on Demand needs to be read widely to alert us to the ever-shrinking limits of our personal privacy." -Gilbert Geis,author of White-Collar Crime: Classic and Contemporary Views
