Scientific discovery and technological innovation continue to
proceed at an accelerating pace, bringing far-reaching benefits as
well as ethical, societal and governmental concerns. Information
technologies in particular have transformed society in recent years
and major developments within other emerging technologies may prove
to be equally as monumental. This series demonstrates the breadth
of challenges and the difficult adjustments entailed in reaping the
benefits of technological innovation while minimizing possible
harms, and highlights that the pathways for technological progress
are uncertain as new discoveries and convergences between areas of
research afford novel, and often unanticipated, opportunities. The
collection consists of eight volumes which focus on issues in:
sports technologies and human enhancement; medical technologies;
information technologies; biotechnology; nanotechnology,
geoengineering and clean energy; military and security
technologies; and ethics, law and governance. The volumes bring
together key articles, all carefully selected by leading scholars
in their respective fields, which play a significant role in
ongoing debates as well as addressing the cutting-edge issues of
futuristic challenges and additional technologies under
development. This series provides a one-stop resource for lecturers
in this field and an invaluable research tool for scholars,
students and libraries.
