Summary:

This book shows how the grand aspiration of creating a Technology for Humanity can be practically achieved. Value-based Engineering shows how to embed value dispositions into technology design, guiding the reader in a clear and concise way from the exploration of value principles to system requirements. In so doing, it supports the creation of a value-based business mission, seeking to foster organizational purpose and human wellbeing with a given technology. Built on the know-how of dozens of experts from around the world involved in the IEEE “P7000” standardization project, Value-based Engineering is now endorsed in ISO/IEC/IEEE 24748-7000, getting the best out of 21st century technology while avoiding many tech-induced social dilemmas.
