Practicing chemists face a number of ethical considerations, from issues of attribution of authorship through the potential environmental impact of a new process to the decision to work on chemicals that could be weaponised. This textbook provides an accessible resource to help chemists recognise the ethical and social dimensions of their own work and act appropriately. Divided into three parts, Methodological aspects, research ethics, and social and environmental implications, it is a valuable reference for students and researchers alike.
