Book Synopsis


Trade Review
Brainy and provocative. — Financial Advisor “A meticulous and captivating study… This comprehensive and thoughtful study of the often troubled relationship between business and benevolence will provide readers unexpected food for thought.” — Publishers Weekly “The book serves as an informative road map for leaders who dare to break the mold. A tapestry of remarkable characters, high drama, and entertaining story arcs for leaders of businesses large and small.” — Kirkus Reviews “As the issue is top of mind for Wall Street and Silicon Valley today, O’Toole’s book will be a valuable collection of case studies on what works and what doesn’t.” — Business Insider “James O’Toole’s clear-eyed assessment of the history of ‘enlightened capitalism’ is a must-read for any business leader serious about shaping its future--and thus our own.” — Jay Coen Gilbert, co-founder, B Lab “[An] admiring but unflinching survey… Mr. O’Toole has made a strong case that enlightened stewardship is in the interest of stockholders. In setting out to write a brief for social responsibility, he has delivered some managerial wisdom. Humanity in the corner office need not be altruistic; it may simply be good business.” — Wall Street Journal “[An] enormous but accessible book… Fascinating.” — Financial Times
