内容説明・目次
内容説明
Featuring a wide range of international case studies, Ethics, Technology, and Engineering presents a unique and systematic approach for engineering students to deal with the ethical issues that are increasingly inherent in engineering practice.
Utilizes a systematic approach to ethical case analysis -- the ethical cycle -- which features a wide range of real-life international case studies including the Challenger Space Shuttle, the Herald of Free Enterprise and biofuels.
Covers a broad range of topics, including ethics in design, risks, responsibility, sustainability, and emerging technologies
Can be used in conjunction with the online ethics tool Agora (http://www.ethicsandtechnology.com)
Provides engineering students with a clear introduction to the main ethical theories
Includes an extensive glossary with key terms
