Thinking Like an Engineer

A Collection of Addresses and Essays

By: the late Henry Sidgwick

A classic work in the field of practical and professional ethics, this collection of nine essays by English philosopher and educator Henry Sidgwick (1838-1900) was first published in 1898 and forms a vital complement to Sidgwick's major treatise on moral theory, The Methods of Ethics. Reissued here as Volume One in a new series sponsored by the Association for Practical and Professional Ethics, the book is composed chiefly of addresses to members of two ethical societies that Sidgwick helped to found in Cambridge and London in the 1880s. Clear, taut, and lively, these essays demonstrate the compassion and calm reasonableness that Sidgwick brought to all his writings. As Sidgwick explains in his opening essay, the societies he addressed aimed to allow academics, professionals, and others to pursue joint efforts at reaching "some results of value for practical guidance and life." Sidgwick hoped that members might discuss such questions as when, if ever, public officials might be justified in lying or in breaking promises, whether scientists could legitimately inflict suffering on animals for research purposes, when nations might have just cause in going to war, and a score of other issues of ethics in public and private life still debated a century later. This valuable reissue returns Practical Ethics to its rightful place in Sidgwick's oeuvre. Noted ethicist Sissela Bok provides a superb Introduction, ranging over the course of Sidgwick's life and career and underscoring the relevance of Practical Ethics to contemporary debate. She writes: "Practical Ethics, the last book that Henry Sidgwick published before his death in 1900, contains the distillation of a lifetime of reflection on ethics and on what it would take for ethical debate to be 'really of use in the solution of practical questions.'" This rich, engaging work is essential reading for all concerned with the relationship between ethical theory and. practice, and with the questions that have driven the study of professional ethics in recent years.

The Impeachment Report

The Report of the Committee on the Judiciary, House of Representatives, with Dissenting Views from Republicans

By: U.S. House Committee on the Judiciary

The Official Report of the House Judiciary Committee on the Impeachment—Plus the Dissenting Views from Republicans, the full Impeachment Inquiry Report on The Results of The Trump-Ukraine Investigation, the Articles of Impeachment and the Republican Report Disputing the Results of the Democratic Investigation, as well as an Introduction by Acclaimed Legal Scholar Alan Dershowitz This groundbreaking report—released by the US House Committee on the Judiciary, chaired by Jerry Nadler—contains the results of the impeachment inquiry into President Donald Trump’s actions as he sought for Ukraine to announce investigations into Hunter Biden, as well as an explanation of the committee's process and its justification for recommending two articles of impeachment against Trump, abuse of power and obstruction of Congress. This new report, separated into four parts, details the process by which the House Intelligence Committee investigated the case against Trump. Part Two is dedicated to examining the standards of impeachment laid out in the Constitution. Part Three delves into the proof and details of the Democrats' case that Trump abused the power of his office to pressure the Ukrainian government to investigate his political rival and interfere in the 2020 presidential election. Finally, Part Four makes the case that President Trump obstructed Congress's ability to hold the executive branch accountable by defying House investigators' requests for documents and testimony. Besides including the House Judiciary Committee's full report, The Impeachment Report also presents the Dissenting Views from Republicans, the findings of the Intelligence Committee’s investigation in the full original impeachment report, the articles of impeachment themselves, a rebuttal report from Republican representatives that disputes the process and results of the Democratic investigation, and an introduction by esteemed attorney Alan Dershowitz. It is the ultimate resource for anyone who wants to know whether impeachment is warranted, and is a critical text in the ongoing back-and-forth battle to protect American democracy.
