Description
Deborah G. Johnson's survey of engineering ethics presents a framework for exploring the most difficult and controversial issues that engineers face in daily practice.
Johnson, a leading scholar in the field of engineering and computer ethics, approaches engineering ethics with three key premises: that engineering is both a technical and social endeavor; that engineers build society through their work; and that engineering is inherently an ethical enterprise.
This accessible textbook uses debates as its framework for presenting various engineering ethics topics, making it an ideal resource for students looking to engage with the subject in a practical way.
