This book is a relatively short but comprehensive guide to professional ethics and law that is primarily intended as study material for all those who need to take the National Professional Practice Examination (NPPE). It can be used as a textbook for a one-term undergraduate course on the subject. It may also prove to be a valuable and handy reference for practicing engineering or geoscience professionals. Its text addresses the issues that have been observed with some annoyance by many candidates studying for the NPPE to become professional engineers and geoscientists. Overwhelmed by the 1300+ pages of official Study Materials? Unable to match the NPPE Syllabus to the Study Materials? Disappointed to find missing NPPE Syllabus topics from those 1300+ pages? Frustrated at having to do additional research to cover those missing topics? Having a hard time monitoring your progress? If your answers are Yes, then this book is definitely for you! 240 pages. All topics covered. No further research needed. It matches and follows the Syllabus! Having the proper study aid makes a huge difference when it comes to mastering the required concepts. While reading this book, you will know exactly how much of the NPPE Syllabus you have covered. A glance at the Table of Contents will lead you to the topic you want.

This is the second volume focused on geoethics published by the Geological Society of London. This is a significant step forward in which authors address the maturation of geoethics. The field of geoethics is now ready to be introduced outside the geoscience community as a logical platform for global ethics that addresses anthropogenic changes. Geoethics has a distinction in the geoscientific community for discussing ethical, social and cultural implications of geoscience knowledge, research, practice, education and communication. This provides a common ground for confronting ideas, experiences and proposals on how geosciences can supply additional service to society in order to improve the way humans interact responsibly with the Earth system. This book provides new messages to geoscientists, social scientists, intellectuals, law- and decision-makers, and laypeople. Motivations and actions for facing global anthropogenic changes and their intense impacts on the planet need to be governed by an ethical framework capable of merging a solid conceptual structure with pragmatic approaches based on geoscientific knowledge. This philosophy defines geoethics.
