Description
The sustainability of business, both economically and ecologically, is one of this century's central debates. While corporations can have positive effects on society and the environment, they can also impact it negatively.

Outlining the long-term corporate benefits, it examines the changes required to achieve true sustainability.
This timely and novel approach to a very topical subject, has been written by a team of well-known and respected international authors.
