Rezensionen

"If the publication of a handbook represents both the
crystallization of research into a movement or field as well as
serving as a platform for future studies, then this handsome and
thorough title certainly serves both purposes
well."-Communication Director magazine

"An impressive, accessible volume that includes writing by a
significant group of international scholars and practitioners, this
handbook will prove instructive to CSR practitioners and students
alike."

-Ethical Corporation magazine

"This volume advances CSR research in two ways: the editors
challenged the authors to confront its constituent paradoxes; and
the respondents offered compelling critiques of the chapters in
those terms."

- Charles Conrad, Texas A&M University
