"Not Slotful in Business" is an insightful exploration of Christian stewardship and the integration of faith into professional and administrative life. Written by Herbert A. Bosch, this work addresses the essential intersection of spiritual commitment and practical management, both within the church and in the daily lives of believers. Bosch posits that the principles of diligence, integrity, and efficiency are not merely secular virtues but are deeply rooted in biblical mandates for living a life of service.

The text focuses on the importance of managing material resources and organizational affairs with a sense of divine purpose. By examining the exhortation to be fervent in spirit while maintaining excellence in business dealings, Bosch provides a theological framework for vocational responsibility. The book serves as a significant historical document reflecting early 20th-century perspectives on church administration and the professionalization of religious stewardship. Herbert A. Bosch offers timeless advice for those seeking to balance their spiritual aspirations with the practical demands of the modern world, emphasizing that all work, when done well, can be an act of worship. This volume remains a valuable resource for students of religious history, business ethics, and practical theology.

Rethinking Purpose of Business: Interdisciplinary Essays from the Catholic Social Tradition
<p><em>Rethinking the Purpose of Business</em> challenges reigning shareholder and stakeholder management theories using philosophical and theological dimensions of the Catholic social tradition. In this useful book, the contributors, including management theorists, moral theologians, economists, ethicists, and attorneys, debate complicated issues such as the ethics of profit seeking, equity and efficiency in the firm, the shareholder value principle, social ethics of corporate management, the principle of subsidiarity, and modern contract theory.</p><p>While the contributors to this thought-provoking volume share a respect for the power of markets, they also assign value to community, common goods, and personal virtue. Essays combine organizational and management theory with philosophical and theological accounts of human purpose. A central argument of this collection is that the tradition of Catholic social thought provides principles that enable fruitful conversations across disciplines regarding the purpose of business and economic activity.</p><p>Contributors Michael J. Naughton, Jean-Yves Calvez, Helen J. Alford, O.P., Charles Clark, S. A. Cortright, and Ernest Pierucci discuss the human implications of current shareholder and stakeholder theories. Robert Kennedy, James Gordley, and Dennis McCann assess the communitarian and personal principles of traditional Catholic social teaching as they relate to organizational and managerial theories. Peter Koslowski, Domènec Melé, Lee Tavis, and Timothy Fort consider how Catholic social principles ought to reshape our understanding of the firm. Jeff Gates, James Murphy, and David Pyke consider how concrete practices in ownership and job design should be affected.</p>
