It considers not only the short-term benefits of technology, but possible long-term effects as well. The text is designed to provide you with a solid grounding in ethics and logic, an understanding of the history of technology and a familiarity with current and cutting-edge information technology. The 9th Edition is extensively updated to cover many new developments and controversies related to the introduction, use and misuse of information technology in modern society. New material aligns with the beta version of the ACM/IEEE-CS/AAAI Computer Science Curricula 2023 as well as cutting-edge topics such as generative AI and ChatGPT; the impact of COVID-19; social medias role in protests; and more.

Über den Autor
About our author Michael J. Quinn, Ph.D., earned a BS in mathematics from Gonzaga University, an MS in computer sciences from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and a Ph.D. in computer science from Washington State University. Dr. Quinn was a software engineer at Tektronix from 1979 to 1981. From 1983 to 2007 he was a computer science professor, first at the University of New Hampshire, and then at Oregon State University. From 2007 to 2022 he was dean of the College of Science and Engineering at Seattle University. He did pioneering research in the field of parallel computing, and his textbooks on that subject have been used by hundreds of universities worldwide. In the early 2000s his focus shifted to computer ethics, and the result was Ethics for the Information Age. Now in its 9th Edition, that textbook explores moral problems related to modern uses of information technology, such as privacy, intellectual property rights, computer security, computerized system failures, the relationship between automation and unemployment, and the impact of social media on democracy.
