Wanted: Everyday Ethics: Ruminations from an Ethics Revolutionary

By Phyllis Kae and Phyllis Kae P.I.

Phyllis Kaes voice captures the energy of ethics. She provides us with the essential tools to start building the foundation of a world wherein people will look to each other for help without the fear of being left helpless. Phyllis challenges us to do what we all know is right, but she does so in a way that makes us want to do it for ourselves and for our families. She acknowledges the imperfections in each of us while, at the same time, encouraging us to learn from our past and carry that knowledge into our future. Ethics is a message that has been stored away for too long, and it is refreshing to see someone bringing it back to light.

Dedication

It isn’t difficult to write when you believe in the words you are writing, the message you are conveying. I believe in the words I have written in these pages. I believe in them with all my heart and with my mind. My hope is that when you have read my words, you will believe in them too.

And so, I dedicate this book to you, reader of my words and message.

I dedicate it to anyone of you and every one of you feeling like you could be more and do more.

I dedicate it to every one who has ever been in a situation when you didn’t stand up for yourself or someone else and later regretted it.

To every one of you who knew you should have treated someone better than you treated him or her and to every one of you who recognizes yourself somewhere in these pages.

In other words, I dedicate this book to every one of you who thinks there must be an answer to some of your questions, a solution to some of your problems.

Dear readers, I offer you ethics. Read on. Enjoy. Consider. Contemplate.

Her ability to remain true to herself has earned her well-deserved respect from officials, complainants, and defendants alike. Now, Phyllis Kae shares how she was able to maintain her personal ethics in a male dominated and often hostile environment and how women of all ages can use her approach to
