SUMMARY:Codes of professional ethics for mathematicians: why? - Jane Hutto
 n (University of Warwick)

CONTACT:Maurice Chiodo
DESCRIPTION:Why would a mathematician or statistician need any advice on e
 thics?  Pure mathematics surely does not need an apology for pure enjoymen
 t of abstract beauty\, unsullied by everyday responsibilities.\n\nThe Amer
 ican Mathematical Society has a Policy Statement on Ethical Guidelines\, f
 irst approved in January 1995. I suspect it is not often read. I will comp
 are this with the International Statistical Institute Declaration on Profe
 ssional Ethics of 1985 and 2010\, and with medical codes of conduct.\n
