Review :
"If we learn by doing, then this book will go a long way towards helping the reader "do the right thing," In Every case, Plante's lucid and succinct explanations of ethical approaches and principles are followed by an imaginative set of exercises that immediately test those approaches and apply those principles to real life situations. The book is not a formulaic set of answers, but an explanation and exploration of methods--their strengths and weaknesses - to help the reader live ethically." --Stepehn A. Privett, SJ, president, University of San Francisco "Life is about decisions; a good life is about ethical decisions. This book is how to achieve the good life." --Leon E. Panetta, former White House chief of staff, director of the US Office of Management and Budge, and US Representative; Institute for Public Policy "We simply cannot continue to ignore ethics on a grand scale in our modern society. Incorporating ethics into our everyday decision making is imperative I few are to achieve a higher level of justice and happiness." --A.C. "Mike Markkula, Jr., cofounder of Apple Computer Inc., president of the Santa Clara University Board of Trustees and founder of the Markkula Center for applied Ethics at Santa Clara University
