Synopsis
Tom Regan has assembled some of the best philosophers around to examine the profound concerns raised by business. I have used this text often in business ethics courses, and students are provided with thorough analyses of the philosophical issues raised by corporate responsibility, freedom in the workplace, preferential hiring--the big questions. What is especially atractive is that each author wrote a chapter for this book, as opposed to the book's being composed of essays culled from other publications. So, the pieces are intended for classroom use. This book is especially useful for the an instructor who has in mind a "philosophical issues raised by business" approach for a course composed primarily by philosophy students. The weakness of the book is that the lack of case studies, examples of corporations' codes of ethics, law cases, etc., will cause business students to complain about inattention to day-to-day management issues. I have dealt with this by supplementary readings of case studies. Perhaps in a new edition Regan will add such materials.
