Bill Bergman Says:
Great quote, again.
Two good books for background by Sissela Bok are titled, respectively, 1) Lying and 2) Secrets. The former is subtitled “Moral Choice in Public and Private Life,” and the latter is subtitled “On the Ethics of Concealment and Regulation.”
Her “Secrets” book is from 1982, and has a chapter titled “Whistleblowing and Leaking” that still resonates.
