Business Ethics examines the ethics of business through issues related to common business situations.

- Appropriate balance between theory, principles and conceptual tools, and practical examples and case studies.
- New pedagogical features in each chapter enhance engagement and understanding. The new pedagogical features include clear learning objectives, definitions of key terms and reflection points.
- Significant revisions to Chapter 7: Professional ethics, and Chapter 8: The Environment, both with a new focus and greater relevance to business students.
