From the Publisher
"Besides the clarity of writing and the broad scope, the work presents accurate information, which may strongly motivate young business people to become Ecopreneurs. One of the merits of the book is the author’s positive way of thinking, peaceful way of struggling against limitations, against different ideologies, against our own lack of perspective and responsibility."Booknews
Advancing the debate on economic environmental responsibility, Isaak (management and international business, Pace U., New York) discusses global trends, obstacles to universal sustainability, success stories of "creative free-riders" (e.g. Ben and Jerry's ice-cream), eco-theories and government regulation, the limits of a European Union eco-management audit scheme, and his "tractatus" on ethics.
