INTRODUCTION TO BUSINESS ETHICS, Second Edition, adopts a varied approach to discussing what it takes to be ethical. It explores the nature of ethical obligation, greed, and economic freedom; describes questionable business practices that outrage societies; emphasizes cases where businesses have either set positive standards or perhaps gone astray; and offers practical advice for avoiding unethical business practices.
It emphasizes that as ethical people, we must respect the rights and dignity of those around us and continue that respect in how we treat consumers, coworkers, and society at large.
This second edition is updated to reflect the latest cases in business ethics and includes features asksing students to consider how they would act in specific business scenarios or to evaluate the details of a real-world business scenario.
