Saving Human Lives : Lessons in Management Ethics Hardback
by Robert E. Allinson
Part of the Issues in Business Ethics series
Hardback
Description
This is a pioneering work. Recent disasters such as the tsunami disaster continue to demonstrate Professor Allinson’s thesis that valuing human lives is the core of ethical management.
His unique comparison of the ideas of the power of Fate and High Technology, his penetrating analysis of the very concept of an "accident", demonstrate how concepts rule our lives.
His wide-ranging investigation of court cases and government documents from the seventeenth through the twentieth centuries, and from places as diverse as the USA, UK and New Zealand provide ample supporting evidence for the universality and the power of explanation of his thesis.
Saving Human Lives will have an impact beyond measurement on the field of management ethics.
