Capitalism at the Crossroads

More about the book

"The central message of Stuart Hart's book is that global business needs to be caring and be committed to preserving the globe's ecological integrity. The ongoing economic slowdown brought about by rampant capitalism, the lessons from which this new edition of the book factors in, has only served to emphasize the urgency for business to adopt the radical transformation of strategy that Stuart has been advocating."--RATAN TATA, Chairman, Tata Group "A few books change the way you think. Very few change the way you act. Stuart Hart's writings have served as a practical guide, a system of road signs that put new order into the complex business of becoming sustainable. We're learning that we can advance in a meaningful, exciting, and beneficial way. We fully expect that his ideas are guideposts that will mark Dow Corning's road to sustainability leadership."--STEPHANIE BURNS, Ph. D., Chairman, CEO, and President, Dow Corning Corporation "Capitalism at the Crossroads rightly points to capitalism as the most powerful and creative force we have for solving global problems. It is a welcome antidote to widespread ignorance about capitalism as a force for good."--JOHN MACKEY, CEO, Whole Foods Market, and coauthor, Be the Solution "I hope this book will be able to influence the thought processes of corporations and motivate them to adapt to forthcoming business realities for the sake of their own long-term existence. Besides business leaders, this is a thought-provoking book for the readers who are looking for solutions to capitalism's problems."--MUHAMMAD YUNUS, Founder and Managing Director, Grameen Bank, Bangladesh, and 2006 Nobel Peace Prize recipient "!a pioneering roadmap to responsible corporate growth."--CLAYTON CHRISTENSEN, Professor, Harvard Business School, and New York Times best-selling author, The Innovator's Dilemma Reinventing Capitalism and
