Reviews
Ethical issues increasingly have an international dimension. These interesting and provocative essays provide helpful discussions of several issues in applied and professional ethics, as they arise in the context of the international arena. I recommend them to those working in this important area. -- Charles E. Harris Jr., professor of philosophy, Sue and Harry Bovay Professor of the History and Ethics of Professional Engineering, Texas A&M University
