Summary
The global trend for 'conscious' business has become increasingly important with the palpable shift away from companies, organisations or governments that act unethically. Humanistic businesses are people-focused and conscious of their obligations towards offering value and building positive relationships with all of their stakeholders. This practical book reveals how to create a humanistic business, which promises higher profit, greater staff retention and more satisfied customers.

Summary
Say 'philosopher,' and someone grand, old and bearded might come to mind. But, as philosophy professor Scott Hershovitz shows in this debut, some of the best philosophers in the world are better described as nasty, brutish and short - that is to say, they're children. Children make wonderful philosophers because they constantly question things that grown-ups take for granted, test theories about the people around them, and try to work out the way the world works. Following the lead of his two young sons, Rex and Hank, Hershovitz takes us on a unique tour through classical and contemporary philosophy, steered by questions like, does Hank have the right to drink Fanta? When is it okay to swear? And, does the number six exist?

Summary
What is goodness? Is goodness achievable, and if so, how? If being a good person is a matter of doing the right thing, then what is the right thing to do? Is it acting rationally, promoting happiness, exercising moderation in all things or respecting the freedom of others, or is it somehow a concoction of all these abilities, wisely adjusted to suit circumstances? In this instructive, entertaining and often humorous book, Gary Cox investigates the phenomenon of goodness and what, if anything, it is to be a good person and a paragon of virtue.
