This textbook highlights the essential need for a strong ethical
framework in our approach to teaching of and working in computer,
information and engineering sciences. Through thought-provoking
questions and case studies, the reader is challenged to consider
the deeper implications arising from the use of today’s rapidly
evolving computing technologies and ever-changing communication
ecosystems. This thoroughly revised and updated third edition
features revised chapters with new and updated content and
hardened the ethical framework. To cope with the rapidly changing
computing and telecommunication ecosystem, a new
chapter, Ethics and Social Responsibility in the Metaverse,
has been added. The interface between our current universe and the
evolving metaverse presents a security quagmire. The
discussion throughout the book is candid and intended to
ignite students’ and professionals’ interest and active
participation in discussions of the issues we are facing now and
those likely to emerge in the near future. Topics and
