What does "doing good work" mean?
This book explores how professionals in the current era of technological innovation and powerful market influences can maintain moral and ethical standards. Central are the professions of genetics and journalism, fields that produce and process information and thus strongly influence our lives.
Insights from research
The authors interviewed more than 100 professionals from both sectors about their ambitions, challenges, and values. In doing so, they discovered important differences: geneticists experience little tension between their values and their work, while journalists often struggle with the tension between commerce and ethics.
