Free market capitalism is one of humanity's greatest inventions, and the greatest source of prosperity the world has ever seen. But it's also on the verge of destroying the planet and destabilising society in its single-minded pursuit of maximising shareholder value. Rebecca Henderson, McArthur University Professor at Harvard University, argues for a new framework; one that can simultaneously make a positive societal impact while also delivering sustained financial performance.

At some point, you'll have absorbed the message that being good is to be calm, efficient and tidy. Wise and well-meaning people offer to help you become worthy, to be positive and productive and to always say 'yes, I can!' But what if this is wrong? And what if some of the things we've been told are bad, are just as useful as the good? Be Bad, Better is not an invitation to start misbehaving but it is about taking what you think are your worst bits and asking what they could do to serve you.

Londra 1818. Per il Ton, un matrimonio di convenienza è quanto di più ordinario e auspicabile possa avvenire. Pertanto Caroline Webster, figlia del duca di Clarendon, trova abbastanza naturale che suo marito James Cavendish, duca di Rothsay, le parli a malapena e non trascorra mai del tempo con lei, se non per sporadiche visite notturne che hanno come unico scopo di provvedere al concepimento di un erede. Tuttavia Caroline ritiene che la freddezza di James sia eccessiva, quasi forzata. Il suo tentativo di modificare la situazione naufraga e, dopo che la giovane duchessa ha un aborto spontaneo, le cose precipitano.

My fiancé brought me tea and scrambled eggs in bed that morning, and we snuggled together, talking about buying our rings, and about our perfect wedding next year. Then we headed into town. He held my hand and gazed at the ring I liked best, a smile spreading slowly over his face. Then a glass of bubbly to celebrate. I felt flushed, excited and ready for the rest of my life with the man I loved. We race to get on the train home. It screams to a halt and I run towards its open doors. Made it. I think he’s right behind me — but when I turn around, he’s gone.

As the contributors to this volume make clear, the future will be decided by whether we act in the present—and we must act to counter institutional inertia, fossil fuel interests, and political obduracy.
