500			_aThe book discusses different dimensions of privacy that arises in social contexts and protect from social overreaching and limit the control that others have over others lives. It presents discussions on advocacy of individuality and how various social responses foster or frustrate the appearance of individuality which in most cases is interpreted as self esteem. Findings from studies in social psychology have been used to illustrate human nature and social judgement. Other discussions in the book explain why privacy is important and how it functions to protect people in social contexts. They also discuss the cultural history of privacy distinguishing between the functions of the social practice of privacy and gossip. It also explains the spheres of life relating these to associative ties and moral and social judgements that interfere with privacy norms.
