Business Ethics' accessible and manageable approach is appropriate for the undergraduate level, and its level of sophistication also makes it ideal for graduate programs. It will serve the needs of faculty who either have not yet taught business ethics in their courses or as a stand-alone course, or those faculty who feel more comfortable teaching business ethics with significant pedogogical support. It will also appeal to faculty who are simply looking for pragmatic, efective, cross-disciplinary text that speaks to students on their own terms. The currecnt AACSB emphasis on integrating ethics into the business school curriculum means that more faculty trained in the traditional business disciplines will be asked to teach a course in business ethics. In addiition, the AACSB now demands that curriculum focus on demonstrating student learning. Hartman/DeJardins meets both of these needs and may therefore be used in any businessethics course included a curriculum that strives to gain or maintain AACSB accreditation.
