  Virtual Searches - Regulating...

  A host of technologies—including digital cameras, drones, facial recognition devices, night-vision binoculars, automated license plate readers, GPS, geofencing, DNA matching, datamining, and artificial intelligence—have enabled police to carry out much of their work without leaving the office or squad car, in ways that do not easily fit the traditional physical search and seizure model envisioned by the framers of the Constitution. Virtual Searches develops a useful typology for sorting through this bewildering array of old, new, and soon-to-arrive policing techniques. It then lays out a framework for regulating their use that expands the Fourth Amendment's privacy protections without blindly imposing its warrant requirement, and that prioritizes democratic over judicial policymaking. 
   
   
   
  The coherent regulatory regime developed in Virtual Searches ensures that police are held accountable for their use of technology without denying them the increased efficiency it provides in their efforts to protect the public. Whether policing agencies are pursuing an identified suspect, constructing profiles of likely perpetrators, trying to find matches with crime scene evidence, collecting data to help with these tasks, or using private companies to do so, this book provides a template for ensuring their actions are constitutionally legitimate and responsive to the polity.

  In Pragmatism, William James introduces and defines the philosophical movement that judges ideas and beliefs based on their practical consequences and real-world application. Drawing from thinkers like Charles Peirce, James argues that truth is not fixed or abstract but emerges from experience and utility. Through accessible lectures, he explores how pragmatism bridges the gap between science and religion, idealism and materialism, offering a flexible approach to knowledge and belief. Rooted in American intellectual tradition, the book champions open-mindedness, pluralism, and the evolving nature of truth. James presents pragmatism as both a method of inquiry and a way of life, challenging rigid dogmas while affirming the value of human experience in shaping meaning. This groundbreaking work remains foundational in modern philosophy, influencing thought across disciplines.

  There are a lot of books about writing out there. If you’re like most writers, you’ve just about read them all. But learning how to write (and organize and outline and plot and edit and save the cat and market a breakout book) is one thing. Making and living a sustainable creative life in the face of...everything...is an entirely different matter. To know how to do that, we need to take a look at what goes on between the lines of our lives as writers so that we can live them with maybe a little more thought and intention--no matter the many interior and exterior obstacles that can threaten to derail our purpose.
