Making Sustainability Work: Best Practices in Managing and Measuring Corporate Social, Environmental, and Economic Impacts

Very thorough discussion of the topic. Mostly high level (conceptual) but does include a multiple of real-world examples FWIW, this book will take longer to read than you might expect. There are ~273 pages of text but note that the typeface size is small and the lines are densely packed together (little inter-line white space). A more typical layout with a larger typeface size for text and lines not as densely packed would probably create a book with 400+ pages of text.

Book purchased 2nd hand for post-graduate studies in sustainability. It arrived in excellent condition and was delivered timely. Contains short case studies and examples throughout. Highly recommended for top management, strategists and accountants.

This is an excellent book. Thorough, but with a real focus on documenting and detailing what makes, or breaks, a sustainability effort. My only small criticism is that the illustrations are in black and white (color would have made some of the diagrams, charts, illustrations and figures easier to read and understand), but this is a small thing. Overall, I recommend it very highly.

In one of my classes we had an in depth discussion around sustainability. It peaked my interest so I found this book. I am happy with my purchase and would recommend to anyone interested in sustainability as well.

Awesome book. Packed with a ton of great information, portrayed in an easy to interpret and succinct way.

Very good

The parts where he discusses how increasing sustainability can directly benefit a company are interesting and thought provoking but too many of their suggestions are based in an alternate reality. Here is but one of many examples, "Companies select their suppliers, distributors, joint-venture partners, licensees, and other business partners not only on the basis of price and quality but also on social, ethical, and environmental performance. Companies that embrace this principle set specific targets for utilizing indigenous, disadvantaged, or minority-owned businesses and use their purchasing power to encourage suppliers to improve their own social, environmental, and economic practices.". While I'm positive both the authors are bright it is painfully obvious they have never worked in a corporation.

Thanks .. the book condition was great!

Good and acceptable service

Comprehensive coverage of the subject. Experienced authors who refer to practice and research throughout the book. Excellent for a newcomer and well worth looking at if you're less new to the topic.

This edition has more examples and delves in more on those. Very much worth a read

Gute Beispiele, sachliche geschrieben aber leicht zu verstehen. Für eine Person, die sich für Nachhaltigkeit und Cases interessiert, auf jeden Fall empfehlenswert.

This is a very well written clearly thought out book.This very readable book delivers all that it promises and perhaps much more. The book definitely has the potential to enlighten the readers about the issues surrounding sustainability and offers explanations for readers to understand the broad theme of corporate sustainability. At last this book comprehensively reveals the true facts about how to put the sustainability in action and how to translate strategy into the sustainability performance indicators.
