Book Description

July 20, 2001 0072445068 978-0072445060 10th
Business and Society: Corporate Strategy, Public Policy and Ethics, by Post, Lawrence and Weber was the first book to be published in the field of business and society and is the market leader! For over thirty years, Business and Society has been updated and reinvented in response to society's relationship to business. Post, Lawrence and Weber discuss the social and ethical impacts of business. Business and Society, 10e highlights why government regulation is sometimes required as well as new models of business-community collaboration. Business and Society, 10e is a book with a point of view. Post, Lawrence and Weber believe that businesses have social (as well as economic) responsibilities to society; that business and government both have important roles to play in the modern economy; and that ethics and integrity are essential to personal fulfillment and to business success.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book was very well written and comprehesive., February 7, 1999
By A Customer
Most textbooks do a very poor job of addressing current issues in a clear, accurate, concise manner. This book, however, is to be commended. I especially found the resource information and discussion cases to be a tremendous benefit. The discussion questions and current event topics encourage the students to explore these issues outside of class, in their businesses and in the community. Business and society is a topic of extreme importance. Unfortunately, it often goes overlooked in so many universities and colleges. Overall, I rank this book as a worthwhile investment and hope the authors continue to explore these important issues in business and education.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not ideal for Students, like me, December 6, 1998
By A Customer
I found this book exremely biased, especially on its treatment of ethics and environmentalism, which were extremely collectivistic and altruistic. I felt like I was also overcharged for the text book, for something so vaguely written.
