EMINENT CORPORATIONS 'points the way forward' - Caroline Lucas, Leader of the Green Party
Tuesday 13th Jul 2010Constable authors Andrew Simms and David Boyle have received very promising pre-publication reviews for their much-anticipated EMINENT CORPORATIONS this week.
The book, published in September (paperback, £8.99), is a timely analysis of the big-name British brands that run our everyday lives including Virgin, Cadbury, Barclays and, of course, BP - 'the chapter on BP alone is worth it', adds Caroline Lucas, Leader of the Green Party.
‘If you want to understand why we’re paying the price for decades of economic folly, read this book. The chapter on BP alone is worth it. If you want to ensure that we don’t repeat the mistakes of the past, read this book. In these extraordinary tales, Andrew Simms and David Boyle point the way forward, revealing how enterprise can become more socially and environmentally useful.’
Caroline Lucas MP, leader of the Green Party
'This book is the essential guide to what went wrong with British business. From BP to Cadbury and Virgin - oil and chocolate to almost anything - these tragi-comic tales reveal how our own fates have become linked to the rise and fall of massive corporations.’
Larry Elliott, Economics Editor, Guardian
‘Eminent Corporations is a coruscating but amusing account of what goes wrong when corporations grow too large. This book is the last word in why companies should never be allowed to become ‘too big to fail.’
George McRobie, author of Small is Possible and former chairman of the Intermediate Technology Development Group
