an original contribution to business ethics and advances the status of the discipline. As a result of its relatively complex expositions, the book would be suitable for students in their third or final year of under-graduate studies and for any post-graduate orientation at Honours and Masters level. Businesspeople and practitioners will gain valuable insights from the many useful case studies, reflections on global issues, and specifically the section on corporate ethics. Oxford University Press and the authors are to be thanked for their efforts to produce a book of high quality. * Petrus Naudé, South African Journal of Business Management *
