Professional ethics

Professional ethics

"It is a pleasure for me to present the book "Professional

Ethics. Fundamental Part," published by the

Mexican Association of Catholic Institutes of Higher

Education, under the responsibility of Rev. Juan

Manuel Garca de Alba M., S.J.

This work stands out on account of its personalist

perspective on ethics, which tends toward perfection

with the development of the person, society and history.

It presents objective norms that apply to

everyone and expressly disapproves of situational."
