Ethics Across the Professions by Martin

The most up-to-date professional ethics reader available, Ethics Across the Professions analyzes the complex ethical issues that arise in such fields as engineering, finance, healthcare, journalism, and law. Organized topically, the anthology covers what it means to be a professional, outlines several ethical models, and addresses key issues including deception in professional life, privacy, loyalty, social welfare, conflicts of interest, and self-regulation.
"Ethics Across the Professions, Second Edition, is the total packageIt offers a strong introduction to moral theory, readings by well-known authors, case studies based on contemporary issues in professional ethics, and enough selections to tailor a course to the instructor's interests/focus."--Mark Vopat, Youngstown State University "If you want a reader (rather than a single-author text), this is the best on the market. It covers all the basics across a range of professions, and the readings are not too long. And students won't come to class the first day hating you because the book's price gave them sticker shock."-- Theodore Gracyk, Minnesota State University Moorhead "This book does a particularly good job of demonstrating how similar ethical issues recur in multiple professional settings. It also provides an excellent opportunity for students to engage with the kinds of ethical dilemmas they will likely face in their future professional careers."--Erica Neely, Ohio Northern University "Ethics Across the Professions has the best selection and quality of articles of any of the professional ethics textbooks."--Carl Miller III, Fort Hays State University "This book provides a wonderful theoretical filter to help students understand the primary moral issues, dilemmas, and questions of our time in a clear, interesting, and accessible way."--Deborah Mower, Youngstown State University
