This book is not a mere plea for more ethical corporate behavior, nor a pragmatic analysis of how to profit from this constraint. According to the author, ethics are not optional, because companies are now judged on both financial and moral criteria. Each firm must therefore carefully define its level of ethical commitment and adapt its management systems accordingly.
