Written by a leading scholar in the field of engineering and computer ethics, Deborah Johnson approaches engineering ethics with three premises: that engineering is both a technical and a social endeavor; that engineers don’t just build things, they build society; and that engineering is an inherently ethical enterprise.Engineering ethicsEngineering ethics.620.0023TB 6400DE-16rvkJohnson Deborah G.authttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut166592DE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910824805903321Engineering ethics4000309UNINA
