Gift of Fire, A: Social, Legal, and Ethical Issues for Computing and the Internet by Sara Baase

A Gift of Fire: Social, Legal, and Ethical Issues for Computing and the Internet, 4e is ideal for courses in Computer Ethics and Computers and Society. Sara Baase explores the social, legal, philosophical, ethical, political, constitutional, and economic implications of computing and the controversies they raise.

A primary goal is to develop computer professionals who understand the implications of what they create and how it fits into society at large.
