[Air-L] ethics of new or emerging media

[Charles Ess]

Many thanks for the recommendation, Michael!

Let me add that I will be working on the second edition of DME for delivery
to Polity in December.  The revisions will include new case-studies and
updates, etc., from my own use of the book in teaching; as well, since its
publication in 2009 I have received a number of very useful suggestions,
including very teachable case-studies and related student projects, from
colleagues and AoIRists that I plan to incorporate in the revisions (and
with great gratitude and scrupulous acknowledgement).

All of this is to say:
a) if anyone is planning to use the book and would like access to some of
the updated material (both my own and that contributed by other colleagues),
please contact me off-list and I'll see what I can do to send along relevant
materials as well as put you in touch with relevant colleagues; and
b) if anyone has any additional suggestions, including suggestions for more
recent case-studies, etc. that you would be willing to share for possible
inclusion in the 2nd edition, I would be very grateful indeed to hear from
you!

Many thanks in advance,
