520 1 $a"Every so often, a startling book emerges that gives voice to a new or previously unexamined trend that is transforming society. In Preemption: A Knife That Cuts Both Ways, Alan M. Dershowitz, the renowned lawyer and educator, chronicles the world's fundamental shift in its approach to controlling dangerous and destructive human behavior. Dershowitz reveals that we are moving - whether in terms of fighting crime, profiling suspicious behavior, or combating terrorism - toward increasingly preventive and proactive measures and away from a traditional reliance on reactive responses."--BOOK JACKET.
