商品描述

Systematically integrate moral values into technology design and engineering

Translating abstract moral values into concrete design requirements remains a persistent challenge across engineering disciplines. Design For Values: Aims, Methods and Applications provides the first book-length introduction to this proactive approach, presenting a systematic methodology for embedding public and moral values into new technology. Grounded in thirty years of research at leading technical universities, it moves ethics from theory into actionable engineering practice.

The book introduces value hierarchies that convert broad principles like sustainability and justice into context-specific design requirements. It provides frameworks for navigating moral overload, value conflict, and stakeholder disagreement through structured design approaches. Four extensive case studies illustrate how these methods work in practice, demonstrating translation from ethical analysis to technical specification across varied domains.

Readers will also find:

  • A design perspective on practical ethics that reframes moral reasoning as an integral component of the engineering and innovation process
  • Methods for identifying, prioritizing, and reconciling competing values when multiple stakeholders hold fundamentally different moral positions on technology
  • Concrete examples and illustrations throughout each chapter showing how abstract ethical principles become measurable, verifiable design requirements
  • Coverage spanning digital and physical technologies, offering broader applicability than approaches limited exclusively to ICT systems or software design
  • A concise treatment specifically structured for use in master-level courses, PhD seminars, and professional development programs for practicing engineers

Designed for graduate students in engineering, design, and ethics of technology, as well as practicing engineers, designers, managers, and policy makers working in science and technology, this book provides the systematic methodology needed to embed values from sustainability to justice into the technologies shaping society.

系統性地將道德價值整合至科技設計與工程

在各工程領域中，如何將抽象的道德價值轉化為具體的設計要求，始終是一項持續存在的挑戰。《Design For Values: Aims, Methods and Applications》是第一本以書籍篇幅完整介紹這種主動式方法的著作，提出一套將公共價值與道德價值嵌入新科技的系統化方法。這套方法奠基於頂尖技術大學三十年的研究成果，將倫理學從理論帶入可實際執行的工程實務。

本書介紹價值階層（value hierarchies），將永續性與正義等廣泛原則，轉化為符合特定情境的設計要求。本書也提供處理道德負荷過重（moral overload）、價值衝突與利害關係人意見分歧的架構，透過結構化的設計方法加以因應。四個完整的案例研究說明這些方法在實務上的運作方式，展示如何在不同領域中，將倫理分析轉譯為技術規格。

讀者還將學到：

• 從設計角度探討實務倫理，重新定位道德推理，使其成為工程與創新流程不可或缺的一環

• 在多方利害關係人對科技抱持根本不同的道德立場時，辨識、排序並調和相互競爭的價值的方法

• 每章皆提供具體範例與圖解，展示如何將抽象的倫理原則轉化為可衡量、可驗證的設計要求

• 涵蓋數位與實體科技，相較於僅限於 ICT 系統或軟體設計的方法，具備更廣泛的適用性

• 精簡而完整的內容編排，特別適合碩士班課程、博士研討會，以及在職工程師的專業發展課程

本書適合工程、設計與科技倫理領域的研究生，也適合從事科學與科技工作的工程師、設計師、管理者及政策制定者閱讀。本書提供一套必要的系統化方法，協助讀者將從永續性到正義等各種價值，嵌入正在形塑社會的科技之中。
