Ethics for the information age
Quinn, Michael J.
Ethics for the information age - 4th ed. - Boston Pearson 2011 - xxiii, 519 p. ; ill ; 24cm. Includes references and index
Computers and high-speed communication networks are transforming our world. These technologies have brought us many benefits, but they have also raised many social and ethical concerns. My view is that we ought to approach every new technology in a thoughtful manner, considering not just its short-term benefits, but also how its long term use will affect our lives. A thoughtful response to information technology requires a basic understanding of its history, an awareness of current information-technology-related issues, and a familiarity with ethics. I have written Ethics for the Information Age with these ends in mind.
