Not just a textbook for a course on ethics but a very readable and comprehensive examination of the scientific enterprise, from the challenges facing graduate students to questions about the role of science in society that confront senior researchers and from interpersonal interactions to public policy.

From the Publisher
Many of the ethical questions that confront physical scientists differ from those that confront life scientists, but until now, books on scientific ethics have focused on the life sciences. This excellent book fills a serious gap, and will be an invaluable resource for academic physical scientists.
Andrea J. Liu, Hepburn Professor of Physics, Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Pennsylvania
Never has there been such a comprehensive, timely, and thought-provoking book on the ethics of science. It is a must-read for scientists at any level to ensure the credibility of their scientific achievements. I highly recommend it!
