520    "When confronted with the challenges of border security 
       and illegal immigration, government officials are fond of 
       saying that our borders have never been as safe and secure
       as they are now. But ranchers in the borderlands of 
       Arizona and Texas fear for their lands, their cattle, 
       their homes, and sometimes their lives due to the human 
       and drug smuggling traffic that regularly crosses their 
       property. Who is right? What does a secure border actually
       look like? More importantly, is a secure border a 
       realistic goal for the United States? Border Insecurity 
       examines all the aspects of the challenge--and thriving 
       industry--of trying to keep terrorists, drug smugglers, 
       and illegal immigrants from entering the United States 
       across our land borders. It looks at on-the-ground issues 
       and controversies like the border fence, the usefulness of
       technology, shifts in the connection between illegal 
       immigration and drug smuggling, and the potential for 
       terrorists and drug cartels to work together. Border 
       Insecurity also delves into how the border debate itself 
       is part of why the government has failed to improve 
       information sharing and why this is necessary to establish
       a clear and comprehensive border security strategy"--
