A Christian ethic for business -- Holiness -- Justice -- Love -- Dual morality -- Law -- Agency -- Honesty and deception (part 1) -- Honesty and deception (part 2) -- Concealment and disclosure -- Employer-employee relations -- Employee rights -- Discrimination and affirmative action -- The environment -- Property
Alexander Hill carefully explores the foundational Christian concepts of holiness, justice and love. These keys to God's character, he argues, are also the keys to Christian business ethics. Hill then shows how some common responses to business ethics fall short of a fully Christian response. Finally, he turns to penetrating case studies on such pressing topics as employer-employee relations, discrimination and affirmative action, and environmental damage. - Publisher
