商品描述
In the original two editions of Engineering Ethics: Peace, Justice, and the Earth, a response of the engineering profession to the challenges of security, poverty and underdevelopment, environmental sustainability, and native cultures was described. Ethical codes, which govern the behavior of engineers, were examined from a historical perspective linking the prevailing codes to models of the natural world. A new ethical code based on a recently introduced model of Nature as an integral community was provided and discussed. Applications of the new code were described using a case study approach.
The proposed third edition will build on the foundational material included in the previous two editions. Over the course of the last decade new and profoundly challenging ethical issues (synthetic biology, artificial intelligence, climate change and the sixth extinction) have arisen in the engineering profession. The notion of an integral community has been more fully developed. The proposed book will include an exploration of these issues as well as provide the reader with a better understanding of the historical development of ethical reasoning and consider future possibilities. Implications of the innovative ideas in ethics and design on engineering education are also considered.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
在《工程倫理:和平、公正與地球》的原版兩個版本中,描述了工程專業對於安全、貧窮與發展不足、環境可持續性以及原住民文化挑戰的回應。從歷史的角度檢視了規範工程師行為的倫理準則,將當前的準則與自然界的模型聯繫起來。提供並討論了一個基於最近引入的自然作為整體社群模型的新倫理準則。使用案例研究方法描述了新準則的應用。
提議的第三版將建立在前兩版的基礎材料之上。在過去十年中,工程專業出現了新的且極具挑戰性的倫理問題(合成生物學、人工智慧、氣候變遷和第六次滅絕)。整體社群的概念得到了更充分的發展。提議的書籍將探討這些問題,並為讀者提供對倫理推理歷史發展的更好理解,並考慮未來的可能性。創新倫理和設計理念對工程教育的影響也將被考慮。
