Ethics Theory and Business Practice
Welcome to the companion website for Ethics Theory and Business Practice by Mick Fryer.
Everyone’s life is affected by business. Moreover, that effect grows more significant as businesses get more powerful and as we come to depend more and more on them for the things that help us lead healthy, prosperous, and contented lives. It is hardly surprising, then, that corporate, academic, and public interest in business ethics has grown in recent years as people reflect on the way that business exercises its power and influence.
Ethics Theory and Business Practice responds to that growing interest in business ethics by helping readers to think about what ethical and unethical business practice consist of. It does this by providing clear explanations of a number of ethics theories and by showing how they can be used to help us think about the ethicality of business activity.
