A romping, interesting, and well-informed read--not a standard recommendation for many business and accounting texts. The text reiterates the need for trust, good leadership, and the importance of the work force, in the creation of real--living and breathing best in practice, global governance. Behavior and good communication, inside and outside the organization; the move onward from beyond budgeting and agile management, to well informed global management control. A valuable and interesting text for executives, managers, and business students, if they want to survive, be inspired, and respond effectively to a POMPEII EVENT. It's a captivating 125 pages. Despite the fact that multiple authors were involved in the project, its tone and style of presentation flow smoothly, and the appearance of a single voice has been accomplished. The book has potential for a wide and diverse user base. For instance, I can envision it being on a reading list in an accounting seminar, in a business policy and strategy course, a crisis management seminar, or even in a public policy course offered in a sociology department.--Professor Mark Bettner, Visiting Professor of Accounting at Furman University Written while in the teeth of the storm, the authors' comparison of the unfolding catastrophe of the 2020 Coronavirus pandemic with the fate of Pompeii in AD 79 is compelling. The socio-economic ramifications of the pandemic are likely to be with us for generations to come. In this book, the connected strategies, activities, and risks posed to the corporate world are carefully examined. That this latest Pompeii Event could be the threshold to a greener world with increased importance assigned to CSR--leaves the reader with some hope of a better future.--Richard Williams. Staff Partner, Beevers & Struthers
