"Morals in Trade and Commerce" by Frank B. Anderson is a lecture-style philosophical treatise delivered in the early 20th century, specifically in 1911, aimed at students of the University of California, Berkeley. The book explores the ethical dimensions of business, scrutinizing the ideals and moral responsibilities that govern trade and commerce. Anderson addresses the misconceptions surrounding corporations and emphasizes the significance of human honesty and ethical conduct in the business world. In the text, Anderson articulates the pressing need for integrity in commerce while challenging the negative perceptions held toward corporations. He points out that, despite sensational portrayals in the press, most individuals and businesses operate on principles of honesty and fairness. By advocating for a greater reflection on moral values and a better understanding of the complex dynamics of corporate ethics, Anderson stresses that the character of individuals in business doesn't change when they become part of a corporation. He concludes with a clarion call for the audience to maintain their ideals and integrity as they step into the world of commerce, framing honesty as essential for both personal success and broader societal reform.
