Comprehensive and Diverse Selection of Ethics Topics
 
With 11 chapters and 23 cases, this is one of the most comprehensive business ethics textbooks on the market.  In addition to having a comprehensive nature for ethical issues presented in the cases, our textbook has chapters on financial reporting, information technology, and strategy that are not included in many other business ethics textbooks.
 
Central Theme Linking Each Chapter
 
Each chapter incorporates its own theme so the teacher has flexibility in how he/she covers the material. The authors’ goal was to link each chapter with one common theme, which focuses primarily on the interaction of the firm with its various stakeholders. The goal of each chapter is to present ethical challenges that students will face and help them see the consequences of potential decisions.
