Iran
I though this book was going to be all about the military surveillance due to the cover of this book, but it was also about local police and pedestrian safety too. This book by MccGwire was really organized with the paragraphs and wasn't too straight forward to the facts to bore the reader. This book was interesting and rich of facts like how the police have hidden cameras so the criminals don't know they are being watched. Also the army sometimes joins with the police to bust criminals who grow illegal plants like coca (used to make cocaine). I would recommend this book the only people who like CCTV, cameras, or other surveillance tools. This book will most likely bore people who aren't interested in surveillance.
