520 _a "This book discusses the question of how information systems can be used and managed in a responsible manner. Normative problems such as intellectual property, privacy, power distribution etc. are at the heart of many of the problems faced by users and managers of information systems. Responsible Management of Information Systems offers a novel approach to addressing these problems. This book takes these problems seriously but avoids the pitfall of ethical simplicity as expressed by some of the current approaches to computer or information ethics."--Jacket.
