Business Ethics by Tom Sorell
Written as a textbook for postgraduate management students, this title draws together ethical theory combined with philosophy in general. It is divided into six sections, the authors consider differences between large and small businesses, obligations to employees, shareholders, suppliers, consumers, 'the community' and government. Examples are taken from international cases, public and private companies, and recent cultural events. Issues such as codes versus practice, and cross-cultural aspects are highlighted.
