Reviews
This is a lively, provocative, and thoughtful exposition and defense of the moral legitimacy of the enterprise of business. I have been looking for a good text to use in teaching business ethics. This is a great one. It could not have come along at a better time., For those predisposed to view commerce with suspicion, this book will cause some face-scrunching. Machan and Chesher offer pointed discussions of business ethics, even as they eschew business-bashing. That is all the more reason to read this philosophically well-grounded, stimulating book., A Primer on Business Ethics is a clear and lively text dealing with fundamental issues. It is well written and takes the important problems into account. It makes a good text for a basic undergraduate course in business ethics thanks to its engaging style., Wonderfully provocative. It includes two helpful appendixes: a brief review of moral and political theory, and a helpful guide to case study formulation and analysis. Recommended., The authors of this book convey the essence of classical liberalism to the business world: powerful arguments in a graceful style., An excellent primer that introduces the subject and provides students with a clear and well-organized view of the major issues/concepts in business ethics., Finally we have a well-organized and clearly written work that distinguishes 'business ethics' from 'business bashing.' A Primer on Business Ethics challenges the assumptions of critics and defenders of business alike. This brave and thoughtful work is excellent for the classroom--it both assists the beginner and engages the expert., Written with friendly approach, pro-business spirit. The book is supplemented with an overview of various moral and political theories relevant to the subject matter and a collection of useful case studies that inspire further discussion. The book can also be used as a text for teaching business ethics., A conceptual, pithy, philosophical work. The Appendix A (Moral and Political Theories in Brief) provides a solid foundation for those business students who have not yet studied philosophy and an effective review for those who have.
