Reviews
"Overall, contributors scrutinize the technology that has led to individual well-being and scientific/political progress while compromising privacy, highlighting the need for increased transparency and accountability. They persuasively argue that the future is about predictability and that the sooner emerging options are identified, the better. This book is a must read." -- B. A.

The individual essays would make excellent additions to a course pack for professors teaching in those areas, and the wide variety of those essays ensures that any patrons researching ethics in future studies would find something useful. Public libraries would also likely find this to be a worthwhile purchase, as the topics are eye-catching and thought-provoking, and the authors have done an excellent job of keeping their writing accessible throughout." -- Michelle Terriss, Journal of Information Ethics

Synopsis
These are questions, like many raised in Future Morality, that we now or may soon have to answer. In provocative and engaging pieces on issues surrounding health and medicine, personal relationships, policing, the environment, artificial intelligence, and many more, philosophers tackle the ethical challenges of the future. Book jacket., The world is changing so fast that it's hard to know how to think about what we ought to do. We barely have time to reflect on how scientific advances will affect our lives before they're upon us. New kinds of dilemma are springing up. Can robots be held responsible for their actions? Will artificial intelligence be able to predict criminal activity? Is the future gender-fluid? Should we strive to become post-human? Should we use drugs to improve our intimate relationships -- or to reduce crime? Our intuitions about questions like these are often both weak and confused. David Edmonds has put together a philosophical task force to get to grips with these challenges. Twenty-nine philosophers present provocative and engaging pieces about aspects of life today, and life tomorrow -- birth and death, health and medicine, brain and body, personal relationships, wrongdoing and justice, the internet, animals, and the environment. The future won't look the same when you've finished this book., The world is changing at such speed that it's hard to know how to think about the new kinds of dilemma that are springing up: Can robots be held responsible for their actions? Can science predict crime - and prevent it? Is the future gender-fluid? David Edmonds has put together a philosophical task force to get to grips with challenges like these.
