This third edition contains three new chapters. ... I appreciate Kizza's work in the ethical education of information technology (IT) students. ... Overall, I recommend this very basic ... but significant educational topic as an introductory text. (Brad Reid, ACM Computing Reviews, December, 2008) From the reviews of the fourth edition: It could work in a computers and society course for students majoring in information technology or in a general education computers and society course for students with other majors. ... Companies that have a serious and ongoing commitment to ethical and privacy issues might use the book as a reference. ... I recommend this book to those who develop computer and business ethics coursework; it is as good as any other option available. (J. Fendrich, ACM Computing Reviews, October, 2010)
