Ethics for the information age, Michael J. Quinn

The main reason to say we are living in the Information Age is because never before have so many people had such easy access to information. The two principal actions that have allow the Information Age are low-cost computers and high-speed communication networks. 

Societies develop new technologies to sort out problem and make life better, but technology, once adopted, can transform us and how we interact with people and environment. Some of these transformations can even create new problems. Further than being a reason to stop the innovation, it gives societies to taking this innovation and technology-related decisions seriously, weighing the benefits and potential harms associated with the use of new devices. To that end, the book will help you gain a better understanding of contemporary ethical issues related to the use of information technology.
