Ethics and Technology: Controversies, Questions, and Strategies for Ethical Computing, 4/e (Paperback)

The Fourth Edition of Ethics and Technology introduces students to issues and controversies that comprise the relatively new field of cyberethics. This textbook examines a wide range of cyberethics issues—from specific issues of moral responsibility to broader social and ethical concerns that affect each of us in our day-to-day lives. Recent developments in machine ethics should also cause students to consider questions about conventional conceptions of autonomy and trust. Such topics and many other engaging ethical controversies—both hypothetical and actual cases—are discussed in this widely used and respected text.
