'Addressing the grand challenges of our time will require collaborative efforts across organizational and disciplinary boundaries. Sustainability is arguably one of the major challenges that has received attention for quite some time but for which progress is also hampered due to limited perspectives on both problems and solutions. Luckily, this book offers a step in the right direction as it not only bridges sustainability and business strategies--in itself a major factor for actually achieving change--but it also does so by drawing on different disciplines. By offering a basis for comparing and contrasting different domains and perspectives, this book helps to better understand the complexity of the underlying problem and thereby also contributes to research and practice.'
