Morals and Ethics: Character and Governance

There is a very great difference between ethics and morals. Many people tend to think of morals and ethics as being the same thing yet they are not. If you were to look in a dictionary even the definitions would look fairly similar. Morals and ethics are not just philosophies. Morals are about the development of character and our eventual behavior. So if morals are so important to our development and what we become, how and where do ethics fit into the picture? The rest of this book will explore the differences between what is moral and what is ethical, and the place each holds in our minds and governance. For some readers this exploration could produce surprises.
