Is it possible to be a man of integrity and also serve in the public sector? In his second edition of Integrity Matters: Men of Honor in the Public Square, Cephas Tushima finds the answer to be a resounding yes! Mr. Tushima has compiled information from interviews of Christian men who have faced ethical issues and stayed true to their values while making a difference in their nation and the world. In this book, these are some of the men you will be introduced to: Engr. Rumberger, who invented the Flex Ring used in modern aircraft; Dr. Dunn, who gives life to many children through organ transplants; Hon. Justice Ogebe, whose landmark judgments helped steer Nigeria toward democracy; Gen. Agwai, who rose to the pinnacle of the Nigerian military and beyond; Dr. Kolade, who led Cadbury Nigeria through difficult business challenges. The stories told in this book show how genuinely ethical lives are lived and how a life of virtue and integrity is still possible, even in the increasingly murky waters of public life. If you are looking for a book of ethical case studies or a guide for your own ethical development, then Integrity Matters: Men of Honor in the Public Square is must reading.
