商品描述
As digital technologies become more pervasive and powerful, they raise increasingly pressing ethical questions that need to be understood and addressed.
This book provides an accessible introduction to the important field of digital ethics. It explores topical examples of ethical problems created by the technology and shows how ethical ideas and values can be used to make sense of them. It provides the readership a clear, well-researched insight into the various issues under the banner of 'digital ethics', including how each of these issues relate to different technologies such as AI, smartphones, and automated decision-making (to say the least). This is coupled with contemporary ideas on ameliorating ethical harm and risk which are grounded in philosophical thought, presented in an accessible way.
The book will benefit those who design and implement digital technologies and, more broadly, anyone with an interest in the compelling ethical and social issues arising from digital technologies. It carefully and clearly describes the philosophical ideas as well as technical considerations behind contemporary digital technology use, to provide the reader with a solid footing for further exploration of this rapidly expanding field.
