A Sampling of Recently Published Books from the Mendoza College of Business Faculty

Business Students Focus on Ethics
Georges Enderle (with Leo V. Ryan and Wojciech W. Gasparski), editors (Transaction Publishers: 2000), a collection of essays on a variety of ethical issues encountered and analyzed by 25 MBA students (and students from other graduate disciplines as well). Because the students come from a wide range of countries in North and South America, Europe and Asia, the book reveals the ethical concerns shared by future managers across cultural and geographical borders. It provides a framework for discussing business ethics issues in a classroom setting.
Enderle is the Arthur F. and Mary J. O'Neill Professor of International Business Ethics and Marketing.

 

SimQuick:Process Simulation in Excel
David Hartvigsen (Prentice-Hall, Inc.: 2001) (a companion to SimQuick software) makes "process simulation" readily accessible to business students and managers. It offers a computer package with which the reader can construct, run and analyze simulations of realistic processes, including inventory and supply chains, manufacturing and project management. This book is an essential tool for students - and managers - who want a better understanding of process simulation and its application to "real world" processes.
