This book makes an important contribution to the recent evolution
in Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) that are
human-centred and socially desirable, environmentally sustainable,
and ethically acceptable. It introduces the concept of moral,
equitable and environmental limits in the ICT domain and proposes a
Slow Tech approach to face the challenges of these limits, laying
out a set of principles that can be applied in real-life business
settings. With the launch of the United Nations Sustainable
Development Goals and the growing interest in the circular economy,
Slow Tech and ICT - A Responsible, Sustainable and Ethical Approach
is a timely tool for forward-thinking businesses.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 10th IFIP TC
9 International Conference on Human Choice and Computers, HCC10
2012, held in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, in September 2012. The 37
revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected
for inclusion in the volume. The papers are organized in topical
sections on national and international policies, sustainable and
responsible innovation, ICT for peace and war, and citizens'
involvement, citizens' rights and ICT.
This publication identifies and discusses important challenges
affecting eHealth in the EU and North America in the three areas of
law, ethics and governance. It makes meaningful contributions to
the eHealth discourse by suggesting solutions and making
recommendations for good practice and potential ways forward. Legal
challenges discussed include issues related to electronic medical
records, telemedicine, the Internet and pharmaceutical drugs,
healthcare information systems and medical liability. Ethical
challenges focus on telehealth and service delivery in the home,
Web 2.0 and the Internet, patient perceptions and ethical
frameworks. Governance challenges focus on IT governance in
healthcare, governance and decision-making in acute care hospitals,
and different models of eHealth governance. The publication
provides useful support materials and readings for persons active
in developing current understandings of the legal, ethical and
governance challenges involved in the eHealth context.
Many challenges lie ahead in the development of a global
information society. Culture and democracy are two areas which may
be under particular threat. The book reflects on today's complex
and uncertain cultural and democratic developments arising as a
result of an increasingly global, technologically-connected world.
In particular it focuses on the Internet, examining new metaphors
for communication, defining the issues at stake and proposing
options, actions and solutions. Among the issues discussed were:
multi-cultural developments; cultural sensitivities and the
involvement of cultural minorities; generation gaps; gender issues;
technology access for the elderly and the disabled; technology
transfer.

UR Reader consists of a set of essays written by international
authors many 0 of whom are acknowledged experts in one or more
aspects of information technology (IT) and its implications for
society. The contents have been influenced by the fact that the
relationship between IT and society has to be considered in an
holistic context. Our purpose has been to present this series of
essays in the loosely related perspectives of landscapes which
reflect that holism. As editors, we have chosen to leave people
free to select the different perspectives and traverse the
landscapes in any manner they choose. The Reader seeks to raise
social awareness of the issues at stake when we talk 1 about
computers and social accountability and aims to encourage wider
discus sion of the issues involved. It has a normative set of aims
and indicates a determi nation to explore a possible reshaping and
restructuring of information technol ogy according to human needs.
In an Epilogue, new pointers are given for action. In what follows,
we describe the rationale behind "The Information Society: Evolving
Landscapes"; we move from the conference held at the University of
Namur in June, 1988, which shaped the perspectives, then on to the
various routes by which the landscapes can be traversed."
