Customer Reviews

Comprehensive and fun.

Dr. Edgar's text provides a thurough and engaging look into contemporary issues involving computers and ethical decision making. Designed for a course in Computer Ethics, this text not only provides applied ethics but also gives the non-Philosophy student a good introduction to ethics itself. As a past student in the course, I felt as though the book worked well and provided professors and students alike with much to work from.
