This book investigates the pervasive role of surveillance technologies and practices within contemporary educational institutions and their implications for discipline and control. Drawing on extensive research, Emmeline Taylor examines how schools have become sites for the implementation of sophisticated monitoring systems, analyzing the theoretical underpinnings and practical manifestations of this trend. The work critically assesses the impact of these measures on student behavior, institutional management, and the broader educational landscape.

This book is recognized as a significant contribution to the study of surveillance in education, offering a comprehensive overview of the topic. It is noted for its rigorous academic approach and its critical examination of the increasing securitization of schools. The work is likely to appeal to academics, policymakers, and educators interested in the intersection of technology, control, and pedagogy.
