In many parts of today's global economy, the moral foundations of society are being tested by a business culture that is given to the good of business owners, rather than the good of the human person and society. The widening gulf between business economics and ethics begs for a vigorous response informed by what is best in the human spirit. This places a responsibility upon business people that calls to faith for perspective. God and Mammon discusses the ages-old, but ever-new conflict between God and Mammon in business. These seven chapters speak of the need for God in business today. Together, the chapters of this book build toward a comprehensive ethic of business administration. God and Mammon finds that business today needs to serve the human person, who is a creative being in the image of God.
Lloyd E. Sandelands teaches business administration and psychology at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. His research focuses on the social and spiritual life of business. He is the author of Feeling and Form in Social Life (1998, Rowman & Littlefield), Male and Female in Social Life(2001, Transaction), Thinking about Social Life (2003, University Press of America), Man and Nature in God (2005, Transaction), and An Anthropological Defense of God (2007, Transaction).
