Unlike most books about CSR or business ethics, this little book does not present "one best way" for managing CSR, nor exhort corporations "to do good". Instead, it explores the paradoxical and pluralistic nature of CSR and the underlying drivers of this nature. It gives researchers a map to advance in the complex academic landscape of CSR, and practitioners a solid synthesis of what is known and less known about CSR. SAGE's 'A Very Short, Fairly Interesting and Reasonably Cheap Book About' series shies away from the sterility of conventional textbooks, offering students an informal and accessible overview of the field that questions and challenges the traditional literature.
