Product Description
Business Ethics is a lively and engaging textbook that tackles one of the most pressing issues facing business today: how to be a good corporate citizen in a complex multiple stakeholder world. It covers the foundations of business ethics and applies these concepts to each of the corporation's major stakeholders. Written from a truly international perspective, it explains the ethical challenges faced by business in different parts of the globe, and provides the tools and concepts necessary to understand and deal with ethical problems effectively wherever you are in the world. It is the only text on the market that fully considers the implications of three major ethical challenges facing business: corporate citizenship, globalization, and sustainability. This third edition offers fully integrated global perspectives, including increased coverage of Asia, Africa and Latin America. The book has been thoroughly updated and includes new content on climate change, water issues, financial markets, private equity, social enterprise, and global religions. The authors offer a wealth of new cases and examples as well as updates of old favourites including BAE, BP, Diageo, McDonald's, Greenpeace, and Siemens. Among the unique learning features included in the book are 'Ethics on Screen' boxes that describe recent movies involving business ethics issues, and 'Ethics online' - a new feature that provides cutting edge insight into the use of social media and online tools for understanding and participating in business ethics.

Format:Paperback
The third edition (2010) of Business Ethics by Crane and Matten is a must have book, even for those who have the first and second editions. Many sections of the book have been re-written making the ethical theory sections and ethical issues clearer by explaining in small steps what and why is important and for whom. The new figures, ethical dilemmas of recent cases within a truly international context make the book the best Business Ethics text book you can use for your international students. An excellent resource is available from the Oxford University Press book companion with power point slides and other material for the instructors.

I was told to read this book for 1 of my classes and I wasn't disappointed. Some past ethic's books that I have read have been very dull and boring to read, but this has been the complete opposite. When I opened this book, I was completely hooked to it! It is a very clear and in-depth book in the world of Ethics. It uses some old and new theory's which is extremely interesting, especially if you wanted to compare old and new thinking in the area of ethics. A lot of factors are brought into this book, like stakeholder theory, CSR, globalization, so in fact it could be considered an 'all-rounder'. It isn't just about ethics, it does draw on some philosophy too which is quite interesting.
I wouldn't recommend this to someone who hasn't read anything on ethics before, as it can be a bit 'mind-boggling' at times. If you need an ethics 'all-rounder', this could be the 1 for you!

The book I received was in excellent condition, I would say it had never been opened and I couldn't be more happy with the product. However it did take a really long time to get here and once it was a day over the delivery date I contact the seller who was very accommodating and sent another book out and I had it the next afternoon!
