Double-weighted statement
The book is an original 210 pages manuscript, based on three years of extensive research, including a nine months sabbatical of ten-hour days of writing. It explores the legal issues of forgetting in the digital age by linking them to chapters on cognition, on the history of remembering, on the philosophy of surveillance, on digital signal processing, and on encryption, among others. Each chapter required wide-ranging research in that discipline. Within law, the book required original research, including extensive fieldwork on over 20 data protection institutions around the world. The chapters could each be stand-alone articles for specialist journals.
