This is an open educational resource created by Marcus Schultz-Bergin. From the book: "Ethics, in general, is the study of how we ought to live. But this book is not about ethics in general. Rather, it focuses on two related subfields of ethics:

• Engineering & Design Ethics: A subfield of professional ethics that focuses on the ethical conditions of successful engineering and design. Focuses on the purpose of engineering and design as well as the values and principles that should guide engineering and design.

• Technology Ethics: A field of ethics focused on the ethical investigation of technology and its effects on society. Focuses on the purpose of technology in society as well as the values and principles that should guide the introduction and use of technology in society."
