The rancorous public debate over business ethics and corporate
reform has lacked a few crucial ingredients: A genuine love for
business and human enterprise, the confidence that the American
corporation is 'worth saving,' a sense that it is fully worthy of
our loftiest ideals and most focused energies. Gratefully, this is
precisely what Peter Drucker, Max De Pree, James Baker, Michael
Novak and their distinguished colleagues offer us in The Heart of A
Business Ethic.
