From The Critics

Salehnia (South Dakota State U.) presents 21 papers that explore philosophical issues of ethics as they relate to the use of the Internet and other information systems. Much of the material is directly related to issues of regulation and legislation, but more theoretical questions are also explored. Examples of specific topics include evaluating business ethics with an artificial neural networks application; copyright, piracy, and privacy; issues; the operation of Internet auction markets; the societal impact of the World Wide Web; information warfare; issues in software engineering; and the application of the thinking of Kierkegaard to the Internet.
