Social and Environmental Accounting Journal
"truly a masterpiece in the landscape of CSR and sustainability
reference books"
Elaine Cohen
DEBORAH LEIPZIGER advises companies around the world on human rights issues and played a key role in the development of several key standards, including Social Accountability 8000.
I cannot begin to imagine the amount of work author Deborah
Leipziger invested in order to bring The Code Book and its revised
second edition to life. It is truly a masterpiece in the landscape
of CSR and sustainability reference books. This is a book which
will never move out of arm's reach, as far as I am concerned.
Please don't ask to borrow my copy. Full review
