If you are looking for my writing directed at a less straightfowardly "academic" audience, my weblogs may provide what you seek:

Doing Good Science (hosted by Scientific American) -- considering the ethical dimensions of building knowledge, training new scientists, and sharing a world.

Adventures in Ethics and Science -- musings about responsible conduct of research, communication between scientists and non-scientists about issues that matter to both camps, and teaching science and ethics.
