Product Description

This book of readings is a flexible learning tool for undergraduate and graduate courses in the evolving fields of computer and Internet ethics. Each selection has been carefully chosen for its timeliness and analytical depth and is written by a well-known expert in the field. The readings are organized to take the reader from a discussion on ethical frameworks and regulatory issues to a substantial treatment of the four fundamental, interrelated issues of cyberethics: speech, property, privacy, and security. A chapter on professionalism rounds out the selection. This book makes an excellent companion to Cyber Ethics: Morality and Law in Cyberspace, Second Edition by providing articles that present both sides of key issues in cyberethics.

A Great Collection of Essays
The Internet has changed the world in so many ways. This book is a collection of essays by some of the most prominent minds of the Internet. It covers security, freedom, intellectual property, privacy, and ethics of course. It was required reading material for a Computers, the Internet, and Society course I took. Very few other books could be better for that subject matter.
