The aim of this book is to generate a strong operational ethic in
the work of engineers from all disciplines. It provides numerous
examples of engineers who sought to meet the highest ethical
standards, risking both professional and personal retaliations. In
short, it presents the fields of engineering ethics in the context
of actual conflict situations on the job, and points to an urgent
need for a strong ethical framework for the profession. This book
is about engineering students and practitioners truly
understanding, valuing, and championing their wider critical role.
Ralph Nader, the consumer advocate and champion of engineers, wrote
the preface. Presents various viewpoints which hail from a wide
variety of disciplines in the engineering, science, and technology
communities. Includes a mix of historical and contemporary
examples, a list of relevant television series and documentaries
for engineers, as well as links to informative websites for
practicing engineers and engineering students. Examines engineering
professionalism as related to the imperative of sustainable
development. Provides numerous examples of corporate whistleblowing
and ethical dilemmas in engineering. Includes a foreword written by
consumer advocate Ralph Nader.
