Catalano, George D.
Engineering Ethics : Peace, Justice, and the Earth by George D. Catalano - 2nd edition 2014 - 1 recurso en línea (XV, 69 páginas) - Synthesis Lectures on Engineers Technology & Society 1933-3641 .
Preface -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- Engineering Ethics -- Models of the Earth -- Engineering in a Morally Deep World -- Engineering Design in a Morally Deep World -- Implications for Engineering Education -- Final Thoughts -- References -- Author's Biography .
A response of the engineering profession to the challenges of security, poverty and underdevelopment, environmental sustainability, and native cultures is described. Ethical codes, which govern the behavior of engineers, are examined from a historical perspective linking the prevailing codes to models of the natural world. A new ethical code based on a recently introduced model of Nature as an integral community is provided and discussed. Applications of the new code are described using a case study approach. With the ethical code based on an integral community in place, new design algorithms are developed and also explored using case studies. Implications of the proposed changes in ethics and design on engineering education are considered. Table of Contents: Preface / Acknowledgments / Introduction / Engineering Ethics / Models of the Earth / Engineering in a Morally Deep World / Engineering Design in a Morally Deep World / Implications for Engineering Education / Final Thoughts / References / Author's Biography.
