This book addresses the fundamentals of machine ethics. It discusses abilities required for ethical machine reasoning and the programming features that enable them. It connects ethics, psychological ethical processes, and machine implemented procedures. From a technical point of view, the book uses logic programming and evolutionary game theory to model and link the individual and collective moral realms. It also reports on the results of experiments performed using several model implementations.

Opening specific and promising inroads into the terra incognita of machine ethics, the authors define here new tools and describe a variety of program-tested moral applications and implemented systems. In addition, they provide alternative readings paths, allowing readers to best focus on their specific interests and to explore the concepts at different levels of detail.

Mainly written for researchers in cognitive science, artificial intelligence, robotics, philosophy oftechnology and engineering of ethics, the book  will also be of general interest  to other academics, undergraduates in search of research topics, science journalists as well as science and society forums, legislators and military organizations concerned with machine ethics.

"Programming Machine Ethics (PME) presents an alternative, combining traditional approaches to decision making with logic-based AI techniques. ? PME draws upon a huge range of relevant work in philosophy, psychology, artificial intelligence and other disciplines, giving that work both computational and logical interpretations, and realising it by means of well-crafted computer implementations. The book fulfils an important need at a time when computers are interposing themselves into every aspect of our human lives." (Robert Kowalski, AI & Society, Vol. 32 (111), March, 2017)

"This book is mostly about programming normative rules into robots and machines ? . For those interested in the formalization of moral problems such that they can be solved by robots, it is a must read." (Sean Welsh, Minds & Machines, August, 2016)

Über den Autor Luís Moniz Pereira

Luís Moniz Pereira is Emeritus Professor of Computer Science at the Universidade Nova de Lisboa (UNL), Portugal. He is a member of the NOVA Laboratory for Computer Science and Informatics (NOVA-LINCS) of the Informatics Department. In 2001 he was elected Fellow of the European Association of Artificial Intelligence (EurAI). In 2006 he was awarded a Doctor Honoris Causa by the Technische Universität Dresden. He has been a member of the Board of Trustees and Scientific Advisory Board of IMDEA, the Madrid Institute of Software Advanced Studies, since 2006. In 1984 he became the founding President of the Portuguese Association for Artificial Intelligence (APPIA). His research focuses on the representation of knowledge and reasoning, logic programming, cognitive sciences and evolutionary game theory. In 2019 he received the National Medal of Scientific Merit. More information, including other awards and his publications at: http://userweb.fct.unl.pt/~lmp/António Lopes has a Licentiate's degree in Philosophy from the Portuguese Catholic University, and a Master in the same area from the Nova University of Lisbon. He is a philosophy teacher at the Anselmo de Andrade High School, where he is Coordinator of the Department of Social and Human Sciences. He published - with the Parsifal editions - the novels Como se Fosse a Última Vez (As If It Were the Last Time) and O Vale da Tentação (The Valley of Temptation). He is co-author of the book Animais que Ficaram para a História (Animals that Went Down in History), recently published by Editora Manuscrito, an imprint of the Grupo Presença. He collaborated in the book A Máquina Iluminada - Cognição e Computação (The Enlightened Machine - Cognition and Computation), authored by Luís Moniz Pereira, published by Fronteira do Caos Editores, 2016.
