Recenzje

In this passionately argued and deeply intriguing book, Professor Colin Mayer argues that one key to addressing our current crises is to redefine 'profit' to include the costs that firms routinely impose on the natural world on those around them. Drawing on organizational theory, law, finance and politics, and ranging across a wide range of concrete examples, Mayer suggests that such a change would profoundly reorient our economic system to the benefit of the many rather than the few.
