Mixing principles and examples with economics and anthropology, a thoughtful and practical perspective on integrity is developed. Often in ethics – as in science – identifying the problem is harder than knowing the solution, making recognition the critical first step in ethical analysis.
Good things, like cooperation, can become negative when they are not tethered to an external reality and the larger society. Also, because our ideology and psychology can blind us to the nature of our choices, we need balance, feed-back, and thought to resolve the ethical aspects of the ordinary and unfamiliar.
