"This book considers key workplace challenges-including sexual harassment, conflicts of interest, greed, and abuse of power-in which gray areas abound ["It may be legal, but...."]. There is hope. As Stephen Goldman shows in this book, companies can move in the right direction by combining clear thinking about right and wrong and an understanding of the requirements the law imposes on conduct. His simple guidelines for behavior will stand companies and individuals in good stead when temptations arise."--BOOK JACKET.
