"
What Mr. Laszlo calls "Planetary Ethics" or the integration of economic, environmental, social and high ethical objectives into long-term business strategy, is the new price of entry for corporate survival. Those who "get" this and do it best will enjoy increasing shareholder value. I believe this book carries a critical message for today's corporate executives."
