"This book is based on conclusion that ethics are nothing but a series of moral qualities. The first chapter, apart from tracing the history of ethics and throwing some light on the concept as such, tries to define ethics. The second chapter outlines the efforts surrounding enforcement of ethics in Nepalese journalism apart from reviewing the implementation them. Apart from defining community radio, the third chapter deals in detail with issues related to ethics in community mass media and related areas. In the fourth chapter, since ethics is not a basic or relative law, effort has been made to point out that ethics can undergo changes with time. Fifth chapter tries to incorporate laws which are attracted in the course of information dissemination. The sixth chapter carries differing ethics rendered into Nepali. That will contribute to the task of carrying out comparative analyses. Together with this, a compilation of the ethics enforced in Nepal until now have been carried as annexures." (Foreword)
