An Introduction to Business Ethics

Book cake in ok condition, not as bad at I thought it would be, buying a used book. And a cheap book find for my class! As for the content, long chapters, and often having to re read over some. Mostly do to everything different going on in one section and long. But hey, means good info right?

This book started off on a politically neutral tone by introducing such objective topics as utilitarianism and virtue ethics, and it does bring up interesting ethical questions. However, as one progresses into various areas of business ethics in this book, each controversial question is ultimately answered from a liberal perspective.The author does seem to try to appear objective by at least mentioning some points on both sides of an argument, but much more airtime is given to the liberal side, which persuades the reader into thinking that way. The author seems to over-simplify many counterarguments to a liberal viewpoint. Additionally, the sneaky persuasive tactic of using first-person voice when discussing two sides of a controversial question subtly puts the reader on the first-person side of the argument, which is liberalism in most cases in this book.Ultimately, it seems this book is an attempt by the author to provide a moral reconciliation between liberalism and capitalism, but it turns out to simply be political editorial for promoting liberalism.

I purchased this book for my MBA class and am very happy with my purchase. I highly recommend the book.I kept the book after graduation and use it as a reference guide. Thank you, Amazon!

How can you review a required textbook other than to say if you need it for a class, buy it, if not, only buy it if you seriously think you need to learn about business ethics
