As we chatted, at one point in the conversation he looked at me and said, "You know, John, I think you would be the perfect person to do this: What would you think about writing a book on business ethics?"
"There's no such thing," I answered.
"What?" He looked a little surprised by my remark. "What do you mean?" he asked.
"There's no such thing as business ethics—there's only ethics. People try to use one set of ethics for their professional life, another for their spiritual life, and still another at home with their family. That gets them into trouble. Ethics is ethics. If you desire to be ethical, you live it by one standard across the board."
Educators, philosophers, theologians, ad lawyers have taken what really is a simple matter and made it very confusing. Living an ethical life may not always be easy, but it need not be complicated. If you are reading these words, I believe you posses the desire to live and work ethically. This book's goal is to help you find the way to do just that and also achieve greater success." —Preface  aAdult  xBiore, ChristopheryCollege of Business and AccountancyzAccountancy  aText in English 0aBusiness ethics. 0aGolden rule. 0aIntegrity. 0aSuccess in business.423Publisher descriptionuhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0914/2003048584-d.html423Contributor biographical informationuhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy1317/2003048584-b.html
