This year’s Business and Society 360 book series by Drs. Wasieleski
and Weber are very timely. Their focus on social entrepreneurship
is needed now more than ever. Not only is there a growing gap
between the rich and the poor, but also the middle class continues
to shrink. Traditional business models aren’t effectively
addressing these complex problems. In far too many instances they
are making them worse. Successful social entrepreneurship models
and paradigms can help bridge those gaps.
