Desire is a rich term meaning wish and want, willingness and
relish, appetite and lust. This volume is an effort to analyse the
concept of desire and its different practical contexts from a
morally philosophic point of view. By analysing multiple
definitions and studying underlying motivations, the authors offer
a variety of explanations and interpretations. The volume consists
of three main parts. The first part, "Desire and Practice,"
examines desire as a mental state that seeks personal satisfaction.
The second part of the volume, "Desire and Moral Life," explores
social, cultural, and literary facets of desire. Finally, in the
third part, "Business Ethics and Other Contexts," the authors apply
PR axiological principles to the business world, examining the
conflict between frugality and consumerist ideology, the role of
intuition in decision-making, and the need for design education as
the basis of effective planning. The contributors to this, the
newest volume in Transaction's Praxeology series, seek to explore
desire in PR axiological terms, with an eye toward the three E's of
praxeology: ethics, effectiveness, and efficiency. In doing so,
they demonstrate that desire is central for practical activity in
general and work in particular.
