The first thing you notice about this book is the pile of white Lego bricks on the cover. Is this what is to come unless we change? A singularly white outlook? A wasteland of plastic? The ideal state? An ivory tower? A book that promises to bring ethics down from the ivory tower – in only 216 pages. This is quite a promise for a tiny tome, and almost certainly too large to deliver. Still, approaching the book with curiosity, I hoped it would provide sorely needed practical guidance. The last four years have seen a proliferation of data ethics and AI strategies, many of which have had little effect.
