What Others Say:

This book by Dr. Charu Jain, Simplifying Corporate Sustainability: A Guide to Implementing Sustainable Practices, comes as a lifeline and breath of fresh air for anyone who would like to have a 360- degree view on sustainability in a lucid manner. In this publication, she brings to the fore her understanding of the subject and her experience therein, combining her educational pursuits and her practical work for many years. The book beautifully blends in the theoretical aspects and various elements of sustainability, along with the metrics and best practices, to implement and improve on the same. The inclusion of case studies and real-life examples helps the reader to better relate to SIMPLIFYING CORPORATE SUSTAINABILITY and understand the core of the subject. Its relevance to successful businesses is what distinguishes it from other publications, which tend to delve solely on the philosophical and environmental aspect, which incidentally also stands covered herein. My compliments to Dr. Charu Jain for capturing the above in this publication, and I hope it can motivate many organizations and individuals to weave in sustainability into every aspect of their lives.

Happy reading!
