This book is composed of three parts in which ethics is discussed at
different levels. In part one we discuss ethics at the level of the individual. In
part two we discuss ethic and business. In the third part, ethics is discussed
in the context of a globalized world.
In each chapter, we discuss the ethical complications of each topic from
various – and preferably opposing – perspectives. Each perspective is
methodologically and academically substantiated. Each chapter ends with
an extensive literature list in which the original sources are listed for further
reading. Furthermore, at the end of each chapter, a summary is written in
which the most important definitions and viewpoints are highlighted.
A book is almost per definition not up to date. After its publication, the
world will inevitably change. To fill this ‘time gap’ we will regularly publish
blog posts and videos in which we comment on current developments that
relate to this book. More info can be found at www.drwernaart.com, or on
his socials. For teachers, presentations for each chapter as well as a
teacher’s manual are available to support lectures based on this book.
