The Ivory Tower Myth suggests that the world of higher education has no moral problems. Unlike ethical conflicts in business, politics and medicine, ethical problems in higher education receive little publicity. But devotion to the pursuit of knowledge does not ensure ethical behavior. Power, competition, pressure and lust for recognition create moral conflicts. Some are unique to higher education but many are common to the world off-campus. This book uses ethical theories as a tool to analyze real examples from our colleges and universities. Topics include: academic freedom, plagiarism, cheating, research fraud, equal opportunity, evaluation, tenure, student-faculty relationships.

This book offers students a philosophical introduction to the ethical foundations of business management. It combines lessons from Kant with virtue ethics and also touches upon additional approaches such as utilitarianism. At the core of the book lies the concept of the nexus of imperfect managerial duty: building and reinforcing the virtuous managerial team, engaging in reasoned discourse among all stakeholders, and diligently pursuing business responsibilities, including the creative efforts necessary for modern organizations. Case illustrations of these applications are presented throughout the book, including chapter appendices. Ancillary videos, test and answer banks and sample syllabi are available online via the author’s website.

DALL''AUTRICE USA TODAY BEST SELLER, M. ROBINSON, In un mondo in cui non avevo nessuna voce in capitolo, la violenza era diventata il mio rifugio, e tutto il resto non aveva importanza. Neanche la mia vita. Prima di lei. Skyler Bell. Tutto ha avuto inizio la prima volta che ho sentito quella voce. Mi ha donato la speranza di un domani. Il mio primo amore era un concentrato di tutto. Vorace. Folle. Per l''eternità. Mio. Solo che non avrei mai immaginato che esistessero dei segreti che dovevano essere condivisi. Bugie che dovevano essere confessate. Verità che dovevano essere svelate. Demoni che dovevano restare sepolti. Quando ho capito che l''aggressività, il desiderio, la tristezza e il rimpianto nei suoi occhi rispecchiavano i miei stessi sentimenti, è stato troppo tardi. L''amore non è arrivato da me sotto forma di tormento, ma come tutto ciò che avevo sempre desiderato. Allontanarmi non era possibile, eppure era l''unica scelta che avevo. Avevo finalmente scoperto il prezzo dell''amore e mi era costato... L''anima.

A sociological study examining the effects of informal social control--the response to behavior or people regarded as deviant, problematic, threatening, or undesirable--in everyday life in a lesbian community in the heartland of the United States.

This book uses Kant''s idea of imperfect duty to extend the theory of the firm. Unlike perfect duty which is contractual or otherwise legally binding, imperfect duty consists of those commitments of choice that pursue some moral value, but that have practical limits to their pursuit. The author presents a broad view of the imperfect duties of management, defined as a nexus of all commitments to do good involving relations internal and external to the firm. This nexus consists of three overlapping categories of (i) building a virtuous managerial community, (ii) pursuing reasoned managerial discourse, and (iii) diligent and reasoned pursuit of the body of routine managerial duties such as capital budgeting and internal controls. Specific applications of the nexus theory for stakeholder relations via fair negotiation, and for analysis of the effects on the managerial team of perquisite consumption are presented. This book has major implications for research in business ethics and allows critical insights into managerial decision making.

In the post World War II era, the Mathematics Research Center (MRC) was one of the earliest comprehensive examples of collaboration between the government and a university. By taking a broad view of mathematics that embraced both the pure and applied branches, the MRC provided a model of an interdisciplinary effort that interacted very well with the spectrum of sciences. This book deals with the complex and challenging organizational and scientific issues that arose in the operation of this center.

Expensive. Powerful. And entirely f*cked up. That sums up the pretentious - but elite - circle I grew up in. As much as I hate it, this life has its perks. If I want it, it''s mine. It''s as simple as that. Until she showed up; she''s a tempting little vixen I''m not allowed to have. One intense night changed it all between us, threatening to shatter everything we know. She came up with a lie. I came up with a cover. Because the truth is... I can''t keep my hands off her and one night would never be enough.

In the hallowed halls of the capital, some who have sworn to preserve our nation''s union are secretly plotting its demise and they are willing to kill to achieve their goals. The country has been split into two distinct factions over energy - "the haves" (those states that are fuel self-sufficient) and "the have nots". The inept execution of a flawed foreign policy in the Middle East has resulted in an Arab-backed oil embargo of the United States. Now the country is in the grips of the most severe winter in years, and rationing has led to unrest and rioting in the streets and certain politicians and business power brokers are ready to make a move. As masses freeze in Chicago and the northeast, fuel-sufficient sunbelt conspirators seek to separate themselves from the rest of the nation, make their own foreign policy, and govern by their own rules and to do it they will resort to blackmail, bribery, and even murder. The Constitution is only a stumbling block, and it can be amended. The United States will be united no more.

Based on exhaustive primary-source research, this is the first full history - from a naval perspective - of the fort on North Carolina''s Cape Fear River and its little-known significance as both the Achilles'' heel of the Union blockade and the lifeline of the Confederacy. It challenges many hidebound perceptions. Robinson vigorously disputes traditional explanations for the Union''s inaction and the sacking of Adm. Samuel Lee with often embarrassing new findings. In a minute-by-minute description of the heaviest naval bombardment and greatest amphibious assault the world had ever seen, he also offers new evidence that vindicates the ill-equipped and poorly trained sailors and marines who for more than 130 years have been unjustly blamed for the failure of their assault across a mile of open beach.

The authors'' aim is to present a review of experimental and theoretical research that has been done to establish and to explain the physical properties of actinide compounds. The book is aimed at physicists and chemists. It was thought useful to collect a large selection of diagrams of experimental data scattered in the literature. Experiment and theory are presented separately, with cross references. Not all work has been included: rather, typical examples are discussed. We apologize to all researchers whose work has not been quoted. Since we report on an active field of research, clearly the data and their interpretation are subject to change. We benefitted greatly from discussions with many of our colleagues, particularly with Drs. G. H. Lander and W. Suski. The help of Mrs. C. Bovey and Ch. Lewis in the preparation of the manuscript, and the artwork and photo graphic work of Ms. Y. Magnenat and E. Spielmann of the Institute of Experi mental Physics of the University of Lausanne, are gratefully acknowledged. Our particular thanks are due to Ms. J. Ubby for her skillful and patient editorial work.
