From the reviews of the fifth edition:
“The book’s 16 chapters start with the history of computing for some reason, along with superficial chapters on morality, law, and ethics. ... This book is clearly useful as an introductory textbook. ... End-of-chapter references and suggestions for further reading are extensive and helpful in a classroom setting, as are end-of-chapter exercises.” (David Bellin, Computing Reviews, February, 2014)
The rapid pace of change in computing demands a continuous review of our defensive strategies, and a strong ethical framework in our computer science education.
This fully revised and enhanced fifth edition of Ethical and Social Issues in the Information Age examines the ethical, social, and policy challenges stemming from the convergence of computing and telecommunication, and the proliferation of mobile information-enabling devices. This accessible and engaging text surveys thought-provoking questions about the impact of these new technologies.
Topics and features:
This comprehensive textbook incorporates the latest requirements for computer science curricula. Both students and practitioners will find the book an invaluable source of insight into computer ethics and law, network security, and computer crime investigation.
