Ethics in Professional Life by Sarah Banks
This approach, the authors argue, is a vital counter-balance to the recent emphasis in professional ethics on the regulation of conduct by rules and procedures. Part II explores the key virtues of professional wisdom, courage, respectfulness, care, trustworthiness, justice and integrity.
'Students will find this text invaluable in attempting to demystify the complexities of this theoretical viewpointIt is a much needed alternative to the more traditional four principle based paradigm' - Julie Woodley, University of West England, UK "The authors have been very successful in tackling an interesting and potentially valuable approach to furthering understanding of ethics in professional practice" - Janice Wood-Harper, University of Salford, UK
