Henderson is an expert on sustainable development and the creator of Ethical Markets, a global TV series covering the cleaner, greener, and more ethical sectors of the US and global economies: socially responsible investing, corporate social responsibility, and the lifestyles of health and sustainability sector. Here, she offers a redefinition of "success" at all levels of society, and describes innovative programs in community investing, women-owned businesses, renewable energy, and shareholder activism. Punctuating each chapter are edited transcripts of interviews and roundtable discussions conducted by Ethical Markets host Simran Sethi. The book will appeal to general readers as an antidote to hopelessness about the global ecological crisis. B&w photos of innovators are included on almost every page. (Annotation ©2007 Book News Inc.
