Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

This work is an examination in words and pictures of the way particular individuals, like Anita Roddick (Body Shop), Tim Waterstone (Waterstones) or Charles Dunstone (Carphone Warehouse) have created businesses/careers from nothing but their own drive and talent.

Author notes provided by Syndetics

Charles Handy was born in Kildare, Ireland, in 1932, and was for many years a professor at the London Business School. From 1977 to 1981, Handy served as warden of the St. George's House in Windsor Castle, a private conference and study center concerned with ethics and values in society. He is now an independent writer and broadcaster who describes himself, these days, as a social philosopher. Other books by Handy include Waiting for the Mountain to Move, Beyond Certainty, and The Hungry Spirit.
