Focusing on five increasingly interrelated spheres of professional activity-politics, law, engineering, medicine, and science-the contributors to Professional Ethics and Social Responsibility cast new light on familiar ethical quandaries and direct attention to new areas of concern, particularly the institutional setting of contemporary professional activity.

"The anthology presents novel approaches, a variety of perspectives, and a wide sample of the problems of different professions. All in all, it is a valuable contribution to the literature and well worth reading." - Ethics: An International Journal of Social, Political, and Legal Philosophy
