Media Reviews
Bowie is a very senior person in business ethics - one of the half dozen or so people who are generally acknowledged as leaders in the field. He has extensive experience as a writer, teacher, and consultant in business ethics and philosophy. I have no doubt that his book will be well received, widely reviewed, and extremely influential in the discipline. Robert Fredericks, Bentley College.
