Description

Carefully selected articles produce a balanced discussion of issues. This edition includes expanded coverage of ethical theory, affirmative action, and corporate responsibility. Womens issues are now integrated throughout the book instead of in a single chapter. A separate casebook with over 100 additional problem cases is also available, shrink-wrapped with the text.
