The field of information ethics (IE), a subdivision of ethics, emerged during the 1980s, originating and maturing in library science and gradually spreading into other disciplines and practical applications. A few years later, a secondary field emerged, emphasizing theoretical and philosophical concepts with little focus on real-world applicability. This comprehensive overview of IE evaluates the production, dissemination, storage, accessing, and retrieval of information in an ethical context across various fields, including the humanities, sciences, medicine, and business. A prominent figure in the field, the author is deeply concerned with misconduct such as falsification, fabrication, plagiarism, peer review, the law, privacy, imaging, and robotics, among other topics.
