Synopsis: The contributors to this book address the theme of
educating ethical leaders for the twenty-first century. They
represent a wide range of fields, including philosophy, theology,
law, science, and medicine. They all share the belief, however,
that ethical leadership education is necessary in order to provide
the next generation of leaders with the tools that they will need
to successfully navigate the challenges of today and of the coming
decades. These essays identify significant issues and challenges
confronting leaders, students, and educators from many different
backgrounds, cultures, and communities, who must negotiate the
difficult matters of tolerance, respect, and appreciation of
difference; and the development of ethical student leaders and
educators within specific environments, who will promote habits and
practices that create communities of discourse and practice that
address the challenges of diversity and culture. Contributors:

Satcher Tavis Smiley Endorsements: "Educating Ethical Leaders for
the Twenty-First Century is a prescient collection of essays
written by distinguished leaders in academia, law, medicine, and
contemporary culture. The essayists provide thoughtful and
challenging examples of ethical dilemmas facing leaders and
communities in the decades ahead. It is fascinating and a privilege
to watch as these notable leaders grapple with the 'issues of
integrity, empathy, and hope as moral indices for ethical
leadership.' A must-read for anyone preparing for or exercising
leadership in the twenty-first century." --Debra Harden,
