Full Description
Combining commercial success with philanthropy and social activism, 'Quakernomics' offers a compelling model for corporate social responsibility in the modern world. Mike King explores the ethical capitalism of Quaker enterprises from the eighteenth to the twentieth centuries, testing this theory against those of prominent economists. With a foreword by Sir Adrian Cadbury, this book proves that the Quaker practice of 'total capitalism' is not a historically remote nicety but an immediately relevant guide for today's global economy.
