Trade Review
"Ethics play an increasingly important role when considering how to collect and use personal data. This updated edition of Data Ethics clearly explains how to take ethics seriously and make it an integral part of business information management and governance. The combination of sound and up to date legal theories with practical tips and case studies makes it a useful handbook for anyone working with data on a regular basis." * Paul Breitbarth, Senior Visiting Fellow, European Centre on Privacy and Cybersecurity, Maastricht University *
"In a world where AI is creating a growing wave of often dubious information, O Brien and O'Keefe's book should be mandatory reading for everybody in IT, media, regulatory bodies and beyond. This new edition of Data Ethics focuses on emerging topics of vital importance in a world where ethical decisions by IT may literally be, in the extreme, matters of life and death." * Dr Barry Devlin, Founder, 9 Sight Consulting and author of Business unIntelligence *
"I can't think of a subject more relevant than data ethics. Given that we live in a data-dependent world, the most important question is not "Can I do something with data?" but "Should I do something with data?". These questions should be considered by teens learning to code, businesspeople gathering and exploiting customer data, scientists developing and releasing Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications, and anyone creating and using data. Daragh and Katherine provide an excellent groundwork for addressing these questions and give us the tools to think and act with our data in a responsible way. Read their book, share it and apply it!" * Danette McGilvray, President and Principal, Granite Falls Consulting, Inc. and author of Executing Data Quality Projects *
"Reading Data Ethics gave me goosebumps. Impeccably researched, it is the definitive work on the topic. Simultaneously confronting and enlightening, it challenged my own ethical framework and validated the principles I hold dear in my practice as a Data Governance Executive. The foreword by John Ladley is delightful and sets the scene perfectly for what is to follow. I look forward to our DAMA community here in Australia, and internationally, having the opportunity to share their experiences after reading this outstanding book on data ethics." * Andrew Andrews, Data Governance Manager, ANZ Banking Group and Vice President of Marketing, DAMA International *
