Ethics in Technical Communication Shades of Gray

"To most of us, right-&-wrong is like black-&-white, but then there's that blinding fog - ethics - that blends into shades of grey. Should-I-or-shouldn't-I? Ethics -the call to trade private gain for public good. If by age 21 you have not reached Wisdom, then this book offers a sophisticated approach to understanding and systematically dealing with ethical issues that may arise in the course of your technical writing career. With the aid of many scenarios, examples, and exercises, it addresses such crucial topics as copyright, patents, intellectual property, software licensing, privacy, billable time, confidentiality, and use of clients' equipment and facilities."Allen, Lori is the author of 'Ethics in Technical Communication Shades of Gray', published 1997 under ISBN 9780471153283 and ISBN 0471153281.
