THIS HELPS TO SITUATE THE READER WITHIN THE EMERGINGFIELD O/TECHNOETHICS DEVELOPED OVER THE LAST /ORTY YEARS IN A BROAD RANGE 0/ CONTEXTS. CHAPTER 11, ENTITLED, A MULTI- DISCIPLINARY APPROACH TO TECHNOETHICS , PROPOSES THAT A MULTIDISCIPLINARY APPROACH TO TECHNOETHICS IS REQUIRED BECAUSE TECHNOLOGY IS COMPLICATED AND THE COOPERATION 0/ MANY KINDS 0/ EXPERTS IS NEEDED TO ENSURE ITS ETHICAL USE. CHAPTER III ENTITLED, TECHNOETHICS: AN ANTHROPOLOGICAL APPROACH , ADAPTS AN ANTHROPOLOGICAL PERSPECTIVE THAT VIEWS TECHNOLOGICAL DEVICES AS THE RESULT 0/ A DESIGNING AND BUILDING PROCESS TRANSMITTING SOCIAL VALUES, THE IMPACT 0/ WHICH, CAN BE PROPERLY ASSESSED ONLY ONCE THESE VALUES ARE UNDERSTOOD. CHAPTER IV, A TECHNOETHICAL APPROACH TO THE RACE PROBLEM IN ANTHROPOLOGY , EXPANDS ON THE ANTHROPOLOGICAL APPROACH TO TECHNOETHICS BY LINKING IT TO HUMAN VARIATION.

CHAPTERIII TECHNOETHICS: AN ANTHROPOLOGICAL APPROACH 32 DANIELA CERQUI, UNIVERSITE DE LAUSANNE, SWITZERLAND KEVIN WARWICK, UNIVERSITY OF READING, UK CERQUI AND WARWICK ASSERT THAT IN THE ETHICS OFTECHNOLOGY, IT IS NECESSARY TO CHANGE OUR VIEW ON PEOPLE AND SEE THEM AS THINGS IN SOME CONTEXTS. TBE AUTHORS REFER TO KANT, FOR WHOM HUMANS WERE TO BE SEEN ONLY AS ENDS, NOT AS MEANS (MEANS BEING EQUATED WITH THINGS IN THIS TEXT).
