A FINANCIAL TIMES BEST ECONOMICS BOOK OF THE YEAR A THE ECONOMIST
BOOK OF THE YEAR 'Brilliantly conceived and enlightening at every
turn' Lawrence Wright We have long been suspicious of corporations
recklessly pursuing profit and amassing wealth and power. But the
story of the corporation didn't have to be like this. For most of
history, they were not amoral entities, but public institutions
designed to promote the societies that granted them charter.
Magnuson reveals how the corporation has evolved since its
beginnings in the ancient world. What happens in this next chapter
of the global economy depends on whether we can return to their
public-minded spirit, or whether we have sunk irrevocably into the
swamp of high profit at all costs. Epic and compelling in scope,
For Profit illuminates the roles corporations played, for good and
evil, in the making of the modern world.
