To inject some hope into the situation, the formidable power of science and technology can benefit humankind only if we know how to temper it with humanism. We do indeed have the capacity to achieve universal freedom from hunger, if we bring about the requisite fusion among political will and action, humanitarian values, ethics, inter-disciplinary skill sets, and people power. Let us hope that the... [Pg.396]

There are major problems with this individualistic approach to energy policy, however. The ideal market of economic theoiy exists nowhere in reality. Further, even market defenders acknowledge cases in v hich markets fail. Significantly, some paradigmatic examples of market failure, such as the externality of pollution and monopolistic control of production, are associated with the production of energy. More importantly, perhaps, crucial ethical questions can be missed if we only consider the perspective of individual values and choice. [Pg.487]

The number of partidpants must be chosen so that the trial wUl have suflEdent statistical power , particularly in the case of confirmatory trials. As a general prindple, the greater the number of data, the greater the confidence there is in demonstrating that a statistical difierence between two groups exists, or not. However, numbers of participants will be constrained by cost considerations, the availability of suitable subjects and, above all, by the ethical prindple that subjects should not be enrolled in clinical trial unless they add scientific value. [Pg.77]

Besides asking mentors about business problems that can be solved analytically, mentees tend to discuss ethical issues with their mentors. It is on these occasions that mentors can contribute to the health of society they should raise mentees ethical and moral sensitivity. They ought to demonstrate the value of ethical behaviour for business success and depict the downside of unethical actions. [Pg.183]

The single best source for quick and reasonably thorough access to the body of knowledge associated with computer ethics is Deborah Johnson s Computer Ethics (3rd edition, 2001). The first edition of that work [17], the first book listed under computer ethics in the Philosopher s Index, provides a conceptual framework for the issues of privacy, liability, ownership, and power. Despite its very early appearance in the short history of computer ethics, much of the analysis retains its value. [Pg.718]

Robert Richards. Not only, I presume, do doctors refer to patients by their disease, but doctors refer to one another by their technical abilities, with the knife , for example, as a surgeon. If you were a hospital administrator (and I know what the answer to this question is going to be, but I d like to hear it anyway) and you have to make a decision not unlike individuals in a university department have to make a decision about hiring, and you have the knife who has that kind of technical expertise, but not noticeably is this person an ethical paragon. You have to weigh different values, and I guess... [Pg.276]

When we say that some program we have just written is "correct", what do we really mean We do not mean "correct" in some absolute sense - correctness is not in this case an ethical judgment. We simply mean that it does what we want it to do. In other words, it fits some pre-arranged condition or relationship between input and output values. If we later decide that we really wanted some other output, then the program may no longer be "correct" for our purposes. [Pg.44]

Indeed, many Alchemical Society members came to see value in alchemy s insistence on the unity not only of nature but also of soul and body. This ethical imperative did not challenge the methods of modem science, but rather emphasized a worldview by which legitimate scientific understandings of nature could be held to have spiritual implications. The Society had clearly moved well away from Atwood s spiritual alchemy, which had little need for science at all. While Alchemical Society members, such as J. W. Frings, certainly noted the continuation of secret alchemical groups essentially practicing alchemy as... [Pg.61]

Currently, physicians and patients determine the demand for pharmaceuticals and employers and insurers assume the risk and cost. As the price of new health care technologies escalates, payers will design and implement strategies to share risk and cost. Defined employer contributions, increased patient cost sharing, and benefit exclusions will be used to help control utilization and cost. In this environment, value-based assessments will be crucial to the adoption of any technological innovation. It is reasonable to expect public and private coverage for new therapies if evidence is provided regarding the costs and consequences of treatment. However, social and ethical dilemmas will certainly arise as therapies whose costs exceed their benefits are debated in the public arena. [Pg.239]
