Summary

Presents ideas without oversimplifying, while balancing ethical theory and managerial practice
Revel™ Business Ethics: Concepts and Cases is one of the most widely used texts on business ethics today — and remains popular among students because of its accessible style and lucid explanations of complex theories and concepts. While cases and issues have been updated extensively for the Eighth Edition, the authors’ goals are consistent with previous editions: (1) to introduce the reader to the ethical concepts that are relevant to resolving moral issues in business; (2) to impart the reasoning and analytical skills needed to apply ethical concepts to business decisions; (3) to identify the moral issues involved in the management of specific problem areas in business; (4) to provide an understanding of the social, technological, and natural environments within which moral issues in business arise; and (5) to supply case studies of actual moral dilemmas faced by businesses and business people.

Revel is Pearson’s newest way of delivering our respected content. Fully digital and highly engaging, Revel replaces the textbook and gives students everything they need for the course. Informed by extensive research on how people read, think, and learn, Revel is an interactive learning environment that enables students to read, practice, and study in one continuous experience — for less than the cost of a traditional textbook.
