5.0 out of 5 stars Interesting Information, Concepts and Cocnerns about Ethics, September 27, 2010
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Desjardins talks about previous related ethical issues that have occurred for huge corporations to help individuals understand the importance of moral actions in their everyday lives. The author challenges us to question how well we know our own faith and values in life. This book is very insightful and interesting to read. I recommend this to anyone that wants clarity or maybe even to have a reference guide on ethics in the work place, this is the book to purchase.

3.0 out of 5 stars Wordy, June 8, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: An Introduction to Business Ethics (Paperback)
This was an "ok" ethics book, but the author is very wordy with making a point. It takes him a page to make a small point. There does not appear to be any uniformity between chapter lengths. Sometimes they are really really long, then sometimes they are normal. It does have some good material in it and the case studies are interesting. Overall it is a good book, but not perfect.
