In a world where eyeballs, clickrates, and IRR often rule the decisionmaking process, the type of thinking presented in Citizen Engineer provides a healthy counterbalance. As the value of intellectual capital increases and the influence of engineering design pervades every aspect of our lives, our collective investment and buy-in to a complete, self-sustaining engineering life cycle becomes essential to our survival. This book crystalizes that message and is peppered with many useful examples. I recommend it highly to students and executives alike - read it now before you greenlight that Thanksgiving helicopter turkey drop (or design the next Kindle)!!

CITIZEN ENGINEER: A HANDBOOK FOR SOCIALLY RESPONSIBLE ENGINEERING offers the insights of two computer industry engineers who focus on two topics: eco engineering and intellectual property. It considers how and why engineering has changed and offers tips to engineers of all types who want to begin thinking in a different way. Collections catering to engineers in particular will find this an absorbing title.

Finally someone considers ethics with engineering & the value af a broad educational background.

Should be required reading for engineering students.
