A critically acclaimed book designed to strengthen the world’s business communities - is being given away for free. Real wealth (not boom and bust), job security, higher wages, an increase in the quality of life – all of these are within reach according to a free, easy-to-read, introductory guide that explains how long-term, sustainable business practices both save and make money. Distributed by the European Foundation for Management Development the book is designed to help businesses generate long-term profits, create jobs, and optimize resources.

By distributing free e-copies of The Sustainable Business (paperback copies can be ordered online at cost), it is hoped that managers will share the book’s information with employees; friends, colleagues and government officials will share it with each other; and business schools, which have long been accused of dragging their heels in regards to accepting and promoting long-term (i.e.: sustainable) business practices, will sit up and take notice.

By the end of the summer, 1.3 million e-copies of the book will be distributed globally. Copies translated into Mandarin are being disseminated across China shortly thereafter (translations into Russian, French and Spanish are also planned). Simply put, sustainability is not going away – indeed, it may soon become law.

Printed soft-bound copies of the book can be ordered (at-cost) from: www.lulu.com
