Ethics for the Information Age, 8th Edition

by Michael J. Quinn

A thoughtful approach to evaluating current social and ethical concerns in the information age In our age of unparalleled technological advancement, it is important that we address the social and ethical considerations that these advances engender. Ethics for the Information Age takes a thoughtful approach that considers not only the short-term benefits of technology, but possible long-term effects as well. Such an approach requires a solid grounding in ethics and logic, an understanding of the history of technology, and a familiarity with current and cutting edge information technology. The 8th Edition is extensively updated and covers many new developments and controversies related to the introduction, use, and misuse of information technology in modern society. New content focuses on the structure of logical arguments, common logical fallacies and includes practical advice about how to enhance privacy and security.
