The book is written in a clear, concise and readable style. The text includes appropriate and interesting case study examples in places, and the exercises and discussion points would make it useful for a small group to work together. -- Charles Oppenheim * Elucidate * This is one of the few books that brings together the concepts of records and information management and information security and is a really solid introduction to the way in which the various information disciplines, whether concerned with security and protection or reuse and optimisation, need to come together to ensure that information remains useful yet is appropriately secured to minimise risk. -- Records Management Journal
