Business

- A Profession (1914)

Bag om Business

Business: A Profession is a book written by Louis Dembitz Brandeis in 1914 that explores the idea of business as a profession. Brandeis, who was a prominent lawyer and later a Supreme Court Justice, argues that business should be viewed as a profession just like law or medicine. He believes that business professionals should be held to a high standard of ethics and that they should have a duty to serve the public interest. Brandeis also discusses the role of government in regulating business and argues that regulation is necessary to prevent monopolies and promote competition. He suggests that businesses should be required to disclose important information to the public and that government should have the power to break up companies that engage in anti-competitive practices.Throughout the book, Brandeis emphasizes the importance of transparency, accountability, and public service in the business world. He argues that businesses should be run with the goal of benefiting society as a whole, rather than just maximizing profits for shareholders.Overall, Business: A Profession is a thought-provoking book that challenges readers to think about the role of business in society and the responsibilities of business professionals. It remains a relevant and influential work in the field of business ethics and regulation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
