Book Reviews of Taking Sides: Clashing Views in Business Ethics and Society (Taking Sides: Clashing Views on Controversial Issues in Business Ethics and Society)

Book Review: Very dated view of ethics
Summary: 3 Stars

This book was not a good choice for the ethics class I took in college. One example was the Ford Pinto case. The arguments for Ford were very clear, but the case of the explosion was a reprint of an article readily available on the Internet. Many of the case studies were not apples to apples - but bananas to apples - meaning not equally persuasive on both sides.

The instructor who taught our class used old materials like this book -i.e. Ethics in America. If he had used a couple of the cases, that would have been great. There are much better ethics resources out there that are up to date and have recent and relevant cases.
