"The Routledge Companion to Business Ethics is outstanding in the range of its essays, the quality of its treatments of the issues, and the value of its many introductory and integrative subsections. Its range is international and includes historical and future-oriented discussions, chapters relating business ethics to developments in the social sciences, explorations of practical management issues, feminist perspectives, and much more."Robert Audi, John A. O’Brien Professor of Philosophy and Professor of Management, University of Notre Dame "This is a comprehensive volume that encompasses all major themes of business ethics. It provides excellent guidance for academics and practitioners."Christoph Lütge, Peter Löscher Chair of Business Ethics, Technical University of Munich, Germany "The Routledge Companion to Business Ethics is a gem, with the scope of a truly essential 'companion.' Chapters cover issues of broad interest, as well as more specialized ones, providing useful historical perspective, as well as insight into a number of timely issues."Chris MacDonald, Chair, Department of Law & Business, Ted Rogers School of Management, Ryerson University, Canada"This Companion offers a checkup or check-in on the academic field of business ethics fifty years in. The editors promise a “broad and unmatched overview” (2) of the discipline and they largely deliver on their boast. I would highly recommend this book as a resource to anyone studying in this field. Someone just beginning his or her scholarly career would benefit from seeing the expansiveness of the study as they set out. Those who have already been teaching and researching in the field for some time will find, as I did, genuinely new insight in chapter after chapter."Jim Wishloff, The University of Lethbridge, Alberta
