It is vital in some because of the life and death decisions that must be made, for example in medicine. In others the rapidly changing nature of the occupation makes efficient regulation difficult and so the professional behaviour of the practitioners is central to the good functioning of that occupation. The core idea behind this book is that Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is changing so quickly that professional behaviour of its practitioners is vital because regulation will always lag behind. 546 English. 583 Selected for archiving|5ANL 588 Description based on online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on January 28, 2019). 590 JSTOR|bBooks at JSTOR Open Access 650 0 Information technology|xEmployees|xProfessional ethics. 650 0 Telecommunication|xEmployees|xProfessional ethics. 650 0 Information technology|xMoral and ethical aspects. 650 0 Employees|xAttitudes. 653 Australian 655 0 Electronic books. 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Lucas, Richard,|d1952-|eauthor. 700 1 Selgelid, Michael J.,|eeditor. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aWeckert, John.|tProfessionalism in the information and communication technology industry. |dCanberra, Australian Capital Territory : Australian National University E Press, 2013|z9781922144430 830 0 Practical ethics and public policy ;|vmonograph 3. 856 40 |uhttps://www.jstor.org/stable/10.2307/j.ctt5hgxws|zOnline eBook.
