Of what does the "good life" consist? What do we owe each other? How
should we distribute the product of our joint effort? For modern
rationality, each of those timeless questions can be answered
separately, and different disciplines have evolved to deal with them.
This book presents a forceful, passionate argument against such
compartmentalization, tracing its origins to the demands of the
socioeconomic system, born in Europe in the eighteenth century, which
today rules the world. It makes the case for guiding our behavior in the
professional realm by aligning it with the kind of life that it is
worth living for creatures like us, and for treating other people in the
conduct of business exactly the same as we should in any other realm.
Such alignment requires a rigorous review of the most salient ethical
traditions, from Classical Greece to the present day.
