"Good book for any person studying Philosophy and/or Business"

This book has a lot of very interesting examples, theories and philosophies on how to treat people and do things in the business world. It's complete with arguments and definitions of theorists ways of thinking. If you're taking one of those types of classes or are into either of those subjects and ethics, it seems like a solid book. The cover art is deep too.
"Awesome Timing"

"This Book is a Breach of Ethics"
2008-10-13
- Reviewed By User: A2AXX5RTUT1GQ9
William Shaw's book breaches ethics. The book sells for about an extortionist's price of a hundred dollars and is dry, confusing, and poorly organized. There is no glossary or clearly outlined structure. Shaw loses us in his arcane concepts. Although ethics is a soft science, Shaw presents his perspective on current ethics as if it were hard truth. What we think of as ethical in twenty years from now may be radically different than today (2008)..as history indicates. Although Shaw uses the terms "ethics" and "morality" interchangeably, he does a poor job of showing the real basis for moral thinking which is religion. Christ and Mohamed were better ethical philosophers and did more for humanity than Kant or the Utilitarians. Still, the monotheistic tradition gets little more than a footnote under the sketchy and ambiguous ramblings to come out of the Enlightenment that Shaw loves. Shaw would suggest that business decisions should be based on these impossible schools of thought. The end of the book and course left me more confused than before. I know that ethics is important and all for university clout, but this book and its scattered approach turns off students and does more harm to the future of business practice. I notice many students and recently graduated people in the business world boasting that ethics is important because of this fad. Now we are allowed to be clean business people just by saying "I believe strongly in ethics". Before, we had to build a solid reputation by not screwing people over. This was something people developed on their own and truly practiced. Sorry, but we can't learn ethics from some fancy book. Take for example the person who sold me my book on this website. The student, after finishing ethics, posts the book for sale. I purchased the book media mail. Two weeks later, the book never comes. So, I emailed the seller who told me that he sent the book the previous week and I can expect it any day. Two days later, the book showed up and I noticed that he paid for express shipping on the same day as the email. Notice that the seller lied to me via email. Apparently, he either forgot to send the book or he skipped over the notification email. This happens because Amazon.com sends notification emails that appear almost identical to promotional emails. The same thing happened to me last year. I apologized to the buyer and promptly shipped the book express at my own loss. This was the right thing to do. Even though I don't know the student living on the other side of the country, I wouldn't want to be in that position of showing up to class without reading the material. I feel like my seller express shipped my book because he was scared of reprisal. Notice that he did not apologize and in fact lied. I don't know what grade he got in ethics, but he was not able to apply his learning even with it fresh in his mind. I blame the book not for not teaching ethics, but for pretending to teach something that is unteachable in only one semester.
I would have given this book 5 stars but I found that when describing the normative theories I found other internet sites gave an easier to read and understand description. The case studies were eye opening and covered just about every ethical topic one would imagine could happen in a business environment. Overall, a good resource.
"A little dry, but very current and interesting case studies."
The actual chapter text is a little dry and sometimes confusing, but the layout is good and the case studies at the end of the chapters are VERY interesting and thought-provoking. I may not have gotten through the class with an A if not for the way the book is so well organized and clear.
