Abstract

This book addresses the diminished role of engineers in establishing public policy on technology-related matters, the increased influence on such policies by those least equipped to understand the implications of technology-related decisions, and the serious detriment to the public interest that results from these trends. The author's message is a clarion call for engineers to protect the public interest as a matter of fundamental ethics and for technology-related public policy to be established with unbiased, factual, influential input from those who best understand the technology.
