In Minority Report, Precrime imprisons people for crimes they would have committed had they not been prevented. With Philip K. Dick as inspiration, the authors posit that developments in Canadian law indicate a trend toward imposing punishments at earlier stages of the prosecutorial process. As risk management logics shift to precautionary ones, the law has responded by developing criminal regulation techniques in light of the "war on terror": the need to ensure security, the proliferation of digital data, and the design of drones, social networking, and cloud storage to gather data. The book is a provocative read for scholars and students in criminal law, policing, and surveillance.

Lauren Menzie is a graduate student in the Department of Law and Legal Studies at Carleton University. She is working as a section instructor in the Department of Law and Legal Studies at Carleton. Her research interests are centered on the evolution of Canadian criminal law and governance, including the legal regulation of sex and criminal law's emergence into the realm of administrative civil processes.
