""The third edition of Markets, Ethics, and Business Ethics offers a comprehensive introduction to the ethical, economic, and political study of markets, and of the people who affect and are affected by them. It speaks directly to students and readers, taking them on an intellectual journey through the diversity and complexity of ethical thought, without dumbing ideas down, or offering facile solutions. This latest edition extends itself to include current research discussions, such as the growth and implications of Artificial Intelligence in business. As such, it is an ideal text for students interested in philosophy, politics, and economics at both the undergraduate and graduate levels."" -Prof. David Silver, Chair of Business and Professional Ethics in the W. Maurice Young Centre for Applied Ethics, co-appointed to the Sauder School of Business at the University of British Columbia, author of Corporations and Persons: A Theory of the Firm in Democratic Society (forthcoming) ""Markets, Ethics, and Business Ethics, Third Edition, is still the go-to introductory text for classes in business ethics and philosophy, politics, economics, and law programs. Professor Scalet raises all the right issues and ethical questions, and he’s always clear about why we’re asking these questions in the first place. The book’s integrative nature allows students to make connections between theory and practice in ways that will improve their own thinking and behavior in social and economic life."" -Terry L. Price, Coston Family Chair in Leadership and Ethics, Professor of Leadership Studies and PPEL, University of Richmond, USA ""Steve Scalet's Markets, Ethics, and Business Ethics is the first business ethics textbook to take seriously the relationship between business, economics, and political theory. By setting the questions of business ethics in a broader context this book has improved student understanding and deliberation of the important issues it addresses.This is by far the best and most practically valuable business ethics text I have encountered."" -Prof. Clark Wolf, Professor of Philosophy and Political Science, Director of Bioethics, and Chair of Graduate Program in Sustainable Agriculture at Iowa State University, USA
