Description
This is Technology Ethics: An Introduction by Sven Nyholm provides an accessible overview of the philosophical study of ethical dilemmas in technology. New technologies have given rise to many new questions, such as whether they are always value-neutral tools and whether human values can be embedded in them.
The book explores a wide range of moral and ethical issues related to artificial intelligence, robots, self-driving cars, brain implants, social media, and communication technologies, among others. It invites readers to develop their own perspectives on these questions through clear and engaging chapters that describe and discuss key discussions, issues, and themes.
Requiring no previous background in the subject, this reader-friendly volume is ideal for anyone interested in understanding the ethical implications of new technologies and how they impact our lives.
