From the reviews:
“It is the tangible outcome of the ‘Workshop on Philosophy and Engineering’ (WPE), which took place in October 2007 in Delft (The Netherlands). … If one wants to get an impression of the variety of topics that one might study in this new and emerging area, it is a great place to start. … a book … to browse through and to keep as a work of reference.” (Ilse Oosterlaken, Science and Engineering Ethics, Vol. 16, 2010)Editors and Affiliations
