Picked it up a few days ago at the fun Fantask bookshop in Copenhagen. As it's a paper book I'm reading it during the day, while I read e-books before going to sleep.
Cennydd Bowles: Future Ethics
Key point is made at the beginning I think, where it puts mediation theory (Peter-Paul Verbeek, Univ of Twente) in the center. The rest of the book had me nodding along but no new elements for me (plenty new examples for me though) Chapter 9 doesn't in my eyes provide actual guidance for coders/devs, other than generics. Probably good as an intro into the subject, as an eye opener for devs that dev work is never neutral, at best, and actively detrimental at worst if ethics don't factor into it right from the start.
