The Enlightened Capitalists: Cautionary Tales of Business Pioneers Who Tried to Do Well by Doing Good by James O'Toole

3.0

The book brings several different stories of a variety of companies, which are very very interesting. The problem is that the amount of stories is so large that the book somehow loses the momentum and turns into "more of the same" very quickly. I believe it wouldn't be an issue if the author's opinion about the whole picture was presented in the beginning of the book, but the way the chapters were organised made the middle of the book (the stories themselves) be repetitive.

I would give the book 4 stars if I hadn't felt like a burden to read half of it, because the stories are really interesting; but it wasn't a book that fun to read all the time, so 4 stars is too much for it.
