Book Reviews of Harvard Business Review on Corporate Responsibility (Harvard Business Review Paperback Series)

Book Review: Excellent collection of Harvard Business Review publications
Summary: 4 Stars

This book is excellent for the researcher who has been trying to find some older works on CSR, which originally appeared in the Harvard Business Review.
There are some "classic" articles in this book, however I would not full-heartedly recommend this collection to the general public:

As one would expect by a Harvard Business Review collection anyway, the topic CSR is not dealt with in a consistent manner, the publication rather adds a number of distinguished articles one after the other.

Summary of Harvard Business Review on Corporate Responsibility (Harvard Business Review Paperback Series)

Harvard Business Review on Corporate Responsibility


What and whom is a business for? This collection of articles gathers the latest thinking on the strategic significance of corporate social responsibility. Readers will develop an understanding of why businesses should continue to give money away even while laying off workers, how companies play a leadership role in today's social problems by incorporating the best thinking of governments and nonprofit institutions, and how community needs are actually opportunities to develop ideas and demonstrate business technologies. Readers will see how corporate responsibility can lead to new markets and solutions to long-standing business problems.

From the preeminent thinkers whose work has defined an entire field to the rising stars who will redefine the way we think about business, here are the leading minds and landmark ideas that have established the Harvard Business Review as required reading for ambitious businesspeople in organizations around the globe.
