“In the past decade EU leadership has been clearly established in ESG and SRI strategies. By contrast in the United States, the field has been increasingly met with politically motivated backsliding. This book is the antidote to skepticism and resistance. It is an essential overview, covering the full spectrum of topics for practitioners and policymakers alike, demonstrating in a clear and compelling fashion why ESG integration and SRI has been, and will continue to be, a powerful force for sustainable development.(--Laura Berry, Mutual Fund Director, Foundation Trustee and Shareholder Advocate, New York City, U.S.)
