A decision to go to war is not about ethics, it is about your interests and what is best for your country.  Can the number killed be justified by the end result.  This is very similar to business, the nicest person is usually not the best business person.  "It is not personal it is just business."  "War is not about ethics, it is about business."

Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.\n\nMy Meaning: Live a good honest life and treat everyone with respect, until they do something morally or ethically wrong and no longer deserve your respect.  If they say they are sorry, and they REALLY are, and they do what they can to fix/repair/make amends, then forgive them, and give them respect...again.  Then Repeat.

Usually, business ethics is a contradiction. In this day and age, ethics and standards for quality are a huge impediment being successful working for most corporations and medium-sized businesses. More than reliability and performance concerns, concerns about whether you'll be too much of an idealist are at the fore when companies interview employees. I think we've got Rome all over again lately.

Bioethics concerns the ethical questions that arise in the relationships between biology, medicine, cybernetics, politics, law, philosophy, and theology. Disagreement exists about the proper scope for the application of ethical evaluation to questions involving biology. Some bioethicists would narrow ethical evaluation only to the morality of medical treatments or technological innovations, and the timing of medical treatment of humans. Other bioethicists would broaden the scope of ethical evaluation to include the morality of all actions that might help or harm organisms capable of feeling fear and pain.\n\nBioethics involves many public policy questions that are often politicized— used to mobilize political constituencies. For this reason, some biologists and others involved in the development of technology have come to see any mention of "bioethics" as an attempt to derail their work and react to it as such, regardless of the true intent. Transhumanist biologists in particular can be inclined to this line of thought, as they see their work as inherently ethical, and attacks on it as misguided.

Both are about values and right and wrong, but ethical usually is more related to professional behavior where morality is more personal.  Government, to me, should act ethically.  When government gets "moral", I feel like they are taking on more personal beliefs.  As a government, I think we need to be ethical about right and wrong, as long as those definitions are universals instead of those related to a scripture.

Critical Ethics thinking is the intellectually disciplined process of actively and skillfully conceptualizing, applying, analyzing, synthesizing, and/or evaluating information gathered from, or generated by, observation, experience, reflection, reasoning .......\n\nIt require the utmost care in their specification and design to avoid errors in their implementation, using state of the art techniques in a responsible manner. \n\nTo do otherwise is at best unprofessional and at worst can lead to disastrous consequences. An inappropriate approach could lead to loss of life, and will almost certainly result in financial penalties in the long run, whether because of loss of business or because of the imposition of fines. \n\nLegislation and standards impose external pressures, but education and ethical considerations should help provide more self-imposed guidelines for all those involved in the production of safety-critical systems. This paper considers some of the issues involved, with pointers to material providing greater depth in particular areas, especially with respect to the use of formal methods.

The study of ethics is something which really will not be covered in hard sciences. Ethics are a wholly psychological and philosophical phenomena and as such would probably be a subject of study in psychology and sociology, more so the latter, but as a branch of philosophy, I'd just stick with reading up on it from a philosophical standpoint.\n\nThe issues which ethics are related to pervade all aspects of life and science but the only time a science would be in direct relation to ethics would be in say, the psychology and sociology of ethics.
