Críticas

"This fascinating and illuminating book is replete with sophisticated analysis of the business environment interface. It is objective and pragmatic, but never takes its eye off the fundamental challenge to business and society posed by the imperative of sustainable development. A state-of-the-art account of this complex area,": Paul Ekins, Director, Forum for the Future
