Publisher's Synopsis
This new edition keeps pace with public interest in business ethics and social responsibility. Merger mania, insider trading, plant closings, illegal waste dumping, and law suits on sex and race discrimination are just a few of the current "heading" topics treated throughout the text. As in previous editions, the book's five-part presentation covers everything from the larger political-economic framework to the practical concerns of managers in day-to-day business operations, with a strong emphasis on student involvement and discussion.
