520 Fundamentals of Sustainable Business begins by briefly
describing the legacy of environmental and social problems
that have arisen as a result of conventional business
practices, and then details the coalescence of a broad-
based contemporary movement that has been called "The Next
Industrial Revolution". Combining the long-term interests
of business, community, and the natural world, the
resulting sustainable business reformation is unlike any
previous human endeavor. The book deftly synthesizes a
diverse collection of movement components, including some
original concepts, and provides a single comprehensive and
definitive source for understanding the emerging and
complex phenomenon of sustainable business. This work
challenges many long-held conventional assumptions
involving the relationship of the natural world and
humankind as well as our fundamental approaches to
industrial production. It critiques the various emerging
brands of sustainable business activities, and provides
the reader with a clear understanding of the essential
design components of a movement that provides a conceptual
infrastructure for a prosperous and healthy world for all
generations of all species for all time.
