2.0 out of 5 stars Didn't select this book for my course, August 20, 2004

Richard Gordon (Wilmington, DE USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: CyberEthics, Second Edition: Morality and Law in Cyberspace (Paperback)

I teach a computing ethics course at an area University. I did not select this book as my text when I reviewed texts for use in the Fall 2004 semester. I did choose Spinello and Tavani's new reader; but this book--like most of the predecessors Spinello has written--would drive my students nuts -- and they wouldn't know why. Bottom line: poorly written and not easy to read -- lots of tough sentence choices made. However, as with Spinello's other books, there are some points he makes that no other computing ethics texts' authors do make! So, I'll glean those points out of his text and present them to my students rather than force them to work their way through and around his prose.

1.0 out of 5 stars Waste of time, October 21, 2003

Emily Childress (Washington, DC) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: CyberEthics, Second Edition: Morality and Law in Cyberspace (Paperback)

This book was an incredible waste of time. I felt that the essays were a) far too dated (a rambling discourse on the dangers of cookies) or b) too out of touch (Rape in cyberspace was NOT a real rape in cyberspace, folks) The authors seem to be mainly scholars without a tech background than technical folks and I have to agree that the thesaurus was in heavy use during the writing of most of the these essays. Finally the book contains very little practical information on cyberethics. Not even a single case study.
