SpringerBriefs in Ethics
Springer Briefs in Ethics envisions a series of short publications in areas such as business ethics, bioethics, science and engineering ethics, food and agricultural ethics, environmental ethics, human rights and the like. The intention is to present concise summaries of cutting-edge research and practical applications across a wide spectrum. Springer Briefs in Ethics are seen as complementing monographs and journal articles with compact volumes of 50 to 125 pages, covering a wide range of content from professional to academic. Typical topics might include: – Timely reports on state-of-the art analytical techniques – A bridge between new research results, as published in journal articles, and a contextual literature review – A snapshot of a hot or emerging topic – In-depth case studies or clinical examples – Presentations of core concepts that students must understand in order to make independent contributions.
