In a world engulfed by flames, the status quo becomes an inadequate option. Rebecca Henderson, a distinguished McArthur University Professor at Harvard University, passionately advocates for the revitalization of capitalism, presenting thought-provoking insights on how to address some of the most pressing global challenges. Hubert Joly, a former chairman and CEO of BestBuy, wholeheartedly supports Henderson's vision.

Free market capitalism, hailed as one of humanity's greatest inventions, has brought unparalleled prosperity to the world. However, it is perilously close to destroying our planet and undermining society's stability in its relentless pursuit of maximizing shareholder value.

Rebecca Henderson, a visionary academic, proposes a new framework that can simultaneously create a positive societal impact by addressing the realities of the environment and the urgent need to address social and economic inequality. At the same time, it ensures sustainable financial performance, fostering economic growth that brings prosperity and well-being to society as a whole.

Drawing upon the inspiring examples of companies worldwide that are embracing this responsibility, Henderson demonstrates that this is not merely a moral obligation for business but also the key to remaining competitive in our ever-evolving world.

Reimagining Capitalism in a World on Fire is a must-read for those who seek realism with a compassionate heart. Arthur C. Brooks, a distinguished president emeritus of the American Enterprise Institute and a senior fellow at Harvard, wholeheartedly endorses this profound and thought-provoking book.
