  • Abstract
    With parliamentary corruption high on the UK´s news agenda, the ethics of managerial responsibility is becoming an increasingly important topic. The paper discusses new book on ethical behaviour for managers. As a rule, books on business ethics and there are plenty of them set up abstract professional dilemmas and ask the business undergraduate to solve them. Management-related issues such as gender politics, the environment, health and safety, ethnic diversity and supplier vetting become part of a debate where there are no right or wrong answers. Traditionally, so-called ´grey dilemma´-solving in the classroom has been seen as an important stepping stone to understanding complex situations likely to occur in the career of a manager.
