Forge examines the challenges of social, moral, and legal responsibility faced by today's scientists. He presents a broad overview of many areas of scientific endeavor, citing the responsibility of corporations, employees, and groups of scientists as judged by the values of science and society's appraisals of actions and outcomes. Forge maintains that ultimate responsibility lies in the hands of the individual--the responsible scientist--who must exhibit the foresight to anticipate the use and abuse of his or her work.
Winner of the 2010 Eureka Prize for Research in Ethics from the Australian Catholic University
