If you are looking for a poorly written, unrealistic, holier-than-though book on ethics, look know further. The authors clearly invested significant amount of time coming up with cliches and parables. They focus only on the clearest cut of clear cut issues (Don't steal, don't cheat, etc.) and entirely avoid any ethical situation which has even the tiniest amount of ambiguity. This makes the book an entirely pointless read and a huge waste of time. Really, if you are considering buying it, I would suggest reading Psalms from the Bible instead, which have the same message as this book, but are both more interesting and better written.
A great little hand book to have lying around the waiting room in your office. Every professional should have a copy handy to remind them and their clients or patients where the boundaries are.
I checked this book out at the library on a whim. It is educational and informative along with being very interesting. I enjoyed it so much, I went and bought my own copy. Provides great insight on what is morally right and ethical (both personally and in the workplace). Johnson and Ridley did not write a dry and boring textbook. This is simply a great book you will be very happy you have read. I'm certain I will be reading it again. Good job guys!
The USPS stuffed it in a postal small box.....and to get it out it messed up the sides of the cover...they could have left a key and placed it in adjacent box.
