Two important new books on Jewish ethics have just been published by Yashar Books.
Moral Issues of the Marketplace in Jewish Law is a groundbreaking study by Aaron Levine, chairman of the economics department at Yeshiva University. Examining ethical questions in a variety of common business situations, Levine studies the situations from the perspectives of American law, secular ethics and the Jewish legal tradition. This 650 page book will quickly become a standard reference on the subject of Jewish business ethics. More about the book: http://www.yasharbooks.com/Moral.html Medicine and Jewish Law volume 3, edited by Fred Rosner and Robert Schulman, offers a virtual symposium on hot contemporary medical issues and Judaism. The authors, leading rabbis and physicians, write in a very readable format about relevant topics including infertility, genetic screening, cloning, time of death, organ transplants from pigs and much more.
