Unlike many engineering ethics courses and textbooks, \u003ci\u003eEthics within Engineering\u003c\/i\u003e focuses on the “internal” design choices, the value judgments which form the intellectual and creative soul of engineering. This book should be required reading for engineering students and instructors alike. -- Eric Katz, Professor of Philosophy and Chair of the Department of Humanities, New Jersey Institute of Technology, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eEthics within Engineering\u003c\/i\u003e nicely encapsulates the ways that ethics enters in—and is integral to—every stage of the engineering design process. Not only does it raise the ethical issues in design, it also offers a set of straightforward principles and ideas to help guide one's moral thinking. The book's clear and conversational style makes it an excellent choice for an undergraduate course in engineering ethics, or for anyone interested in the moral responsibilities of professional engineers. -- Mark C. Vopat, Professor of Philosophy and Director of the Dr. James Dale Ethics Center, Youngstown State University, USA\u003cbr\u003eThis book is evidence that there are concepts central to the ethical design and use of technological artifacts which no one has yet put into words. Dr. Robison has written a book with clear examples and analysis that will ignite discussions about engineering ethics between students and instructors in both engineering and ethics classrooms. It deserves to be widely read. -- Adam Potthast, Associate Professor of Philosophy, Park University, USA\u003cbr\u003eEngaging, insightful, and very thought-provoking, Robison demonstrates that ethics is integral to the study and practice of engineering. This should be required reading for all engineering students. -- Deborah S.
