About the Book:
Today, more and more organizations are realizing
the importance of practising ethics in their business dealings. And the
engineering profession is no exception to this. For, any policy or practice
that gives a go-by to professional ethics—which essentially entails fair and
transparent dealings based on sound moral principles—cannot enjoy the confidence
of the customer for long. It is in this context that a book on Professional
Ethics is very significant.
This systematically organized text opens with an introduction to Human Values
and discusses, with great skill and expertise, the various approaches to the
study of ethical behaviour, ethical theories, value-based ethics and the
engineers’ responsibility for safety and risk, collegiality and loyalty.
Besides, the responsibilities of engineers in organizational setting, and
global issues such as environmental ethics, computer ethics, and Intellectual
Property Rights (IPRs) are also covered in this text.
The Case Studies lend a practical orientation to the book, and the Review
Questions sharpen the analytical skills of the students. This is a must have
book for the students of engineering and management. |
