In this issue Emma Clarke talks to associate professor of philosophy, Angie Hobbs, about the notions of flourishing and happiness first raised by ancient philosophers Aristotle and Plato.
Hobbs says buyers can learn a lot from the study of philosophy and that it can help them deal with some of the ethical dilemmas they face on the job.
