Book Review: Business Ethics and Rational Corporate Policies by Konstantinos Mantzaris
As someone who has always been interested in business ethics, I was excited to dive into Konstantinos Mantzaris’ latest book, “Business Ethics and Rational Corporate Policies.” And I must say, it did not disappoint.
From the very beginning, Mantzaris lays out a clear and concise argument for why businesses must prioritize ethics in their decision-making processes. He provides numerous examples of companies that have failed to do so and suffered the consequences, as well as those that have succeeded by prioritizing ethical values.
What really stood out to me about this book was Mantzaris’ approach to the subject matter. He doesn’t simply list off a bunch of rules for businesses to follow; instead, he encourages readers to consider the underlying moral principles behind these rules. This approach forces readers to engage with the material on a deeper level and really think about what it means to act ethically in a corporate setting.
Of course, no book is perfect. One criticism I would make is that at times Mantzaris can be a bit dry in his writing style. While his arguments are always clear and well-supported, there were moments where I found myself wishing for a bit more personality or flair.
Still, overall I would highly recommend “Business Ethics and Rational Corporate Policies” to anyone interested in this important topic. It’s a thought-provoking read that will leave you with plenty of ideas for how businesses can better align their practices with ethical values.

Description : Digestive complaints have become increasingly common. Recent statistics show that gastrointestinal complaints account for nearly a third of all visits to primary care doctors and that nearly one in two Americans suffer from digestive disease. Millions more suffer from conditions such as migraine headaches, arthritis, mood disorders, chronic fatigue, asthma, allergies, and menstrual dysfunction, which are all related to a disorder in digestive health. Despite the evidence in support of integrative approaches to treatment and prevention of digestive symptoms, these approaches are largely overlooked in treating gastrointestinal disorders. Rather, treatment plans tend to be exclusively pharmacologically based and have appreciable toxicity. Integrative Gastroenterology, Second edition, is a comprehensive guide to helping health care practitioners understand and appreciate how to manage patients with gastrointestinal conditions integrating conventional and complimentary approaches. This text reviews the latest advances in science and research with regards to the gut microbiome, physiology, and interconnections between the gut and other organ systems. Coverage includes a diverse range of treatment methods, such as probiotics, meditation, massage, yoga, supplements, special diets, energy medicine, homeopathy, and acupuncture, as well as a special section devoted to mind-body medicine in digestive health and disease. In discussing unconventional treatments, the authors address many of the controversies that surround the remedies....
