Ethical Issues in Business

A Philosophical Approach (6th Edition)

by Thomas Donaldson, Patricia H. Werhane

Published 1998611 pagesISBN 978-0-1329-0628-9

"Ranging from classics in philosophy to moral theory, economics, and modern commentaries by business executives, Ethical Issues in Business focuses on the theoretical perspectives that form the foundation for the study of business ethics." "Revised and updated, Ethical Issues in Business, Sixth Edition, tackles important and current issues, including ethics in international business; sexual harassment; whistle blowing; job security; product safety; environmental concerns, corporate strategy, and new management challenges; and more."--Jacket.

Beyond its central premise, the book can be read through the connected lenses of Philosophy. Those themes offer useful points of attention as the characters, ideas, or world develop, especially where the book complicates the expectations of its primary category.

A more thoughtful way into this book

This guide uses the edition details and category signals above to help you choose deliberately. It does not replace the author's work or a full review.

Good to know

Best when you want to settle into a longer reading experience.

Begin with its place in Philosophy, then notice where the book resists that label.

Try this reading approach

Read for connection, not completion.

Mark one passage that sharpens the book's central concern and one that complicates it. That tension often reveals more than a quick summary.

Three questions to carry with you

  1. What question is the author really asking beneath the book’s main argument?
  2. Which claim challenges one of your familiar assumptions?
  3. What remains unresolved—and is that uncertainty useful?
