Review
Make no mistake that this book is a piece of fluff that gives you the basics of this legislation. This book is just the opposite. It gives you all the information that you need to know to understand this law, understand how it works for and against you and how it has changed since 9/11. This is something that I will keep as a reference for a very long time and it's a publication that I will be recommending that others purchase to help them understand this law.
I was honestly overwhelmed at the wealth of information in this book. This was a law that I thought I understood, and I learned quite a bit. To protect ourselves this is information that we all need to have at our fingertips. The best part is that Klosek has broken it down so that it is understandable to the general public.
A big thank you to Klosek for explaining this so we all can be informed and protect our rights!
