Teaching Business Ethics in the UK, Europe and the USA A Comparative Study [Hardcover]

This book describes how the ethical conduct of business has become a topic of major interest in the USA and a subject for serious study in American universities and business schools. In Europe, including Great Britain, public concern is increasing about the moral aspects of business behaviour. Professor Mahoney shows how this growing concern is reflected in the programmes of business studies offered by various European universities and business schools. The results of a survey point to future developments in this area.

Professor Mahoney is Professor of Commerce at Gresham College, Professor or Moral and Social Theology at King's College, London and Director of King's College Business Ethics Centre. His other books include Seeking the Spirit (1983), Bioethics and Belief (1984) and The Making of Moral Theology (1989).
