Since women are entering the workforce in record numbers, there is an urgency to address specific ethical problems with which they are faced. Providing a conceptual framework from which practical issues can be viewed, the authors focus on sexual harassment, comparable worth, leadership, advertising, and working-class women. Besides theory and the potential application of such, personal narratives and statistical data or charts are also included. This is not merely a summary of others' work; it is a book that may frame debates on gender, ethics, business and economics, and serve as an exemplar for the critical treatment of basic human concerns.
