"Needs to be urgently read by managers at all levels." Long Range Planning "Offers an excellent introduction to the most important topic for business..." Executive Development "The scale, the courage, the demanding vision of this book makes it an exceptional read for any manager. There are all signs of the future in this book ... I commend this work for its breadth, foresightedness and its meticulous, and practical relevance to our human condition." Sir Peter Parker

Davis shows that the developed and developing world must now pursue 'sustainable development' requiring high levels of directed innovation. Industrial and commercial businesses of all kinds must bring about what amounts to a second industrial revolution.
