Reviews

... a breakthrough volume; it will stand as essential reading and a primary reference in the further development of ethics and IT design, most especially as informed by virtue ethics approaches. -Professor Charles Ess, University of Oslo A fascinating, remarkable journey about the importance of ethics in the design and application of modern information technologies. Deeply researched and engrossing-a book all innovators should read. -Professor Alessandro Acquisti, Carnegie Mellon University Full of clear and compelling examples, this book is an excellent guide for students, professional engineers, and for managers who want to ensure ethics and values are among the concerns teams account for during design. - Professor Katie Shilton, University of Maryland I will take this book with me to technical conferences and meetings, and also keep a copy on my desk, both to refer to and to find relevant works in the literature list. Ethical IT Innovation is an important book that will hopefully have an impact in academic discourse, and, possibly more importantly, in shaping our information systems in the future. -Bendert Zevenbergen, PhD student, Oxford University
