The Integrity of Intelligence: A Bill of Rights for the Information Age

Exploring the effect of information technology on everyone’s lives, the authors illustrate how a lack of proper social control over IT has led to a scene of technological wizardry and real everyday gains, but contaminated by discrimination, deprivation and unacceptable ethical standards. The book states the case, shows how and where things have gone wrong, hits hard at those responsible for the mistakes, offers ways of ensuring that everyone gets the benefits of IT, and argues the need to put some integrity into technology.
