Abstract

A silent revolution is underway initiated by social entrepreneurs – pragmatist visionaries who are challenging prevalent notions of business motives and methods to invent market- based solutions to eradicate social injustice. Yet, to succeed and reach scale, they need help from within the social and economic systems they intend to change. This book is a call to arms, encouraging each of us to join this mutiny.
