520 | 3 | _aMuhammad Yunus outlines his vision for a new business model that combines the power of free markets with the quest for a more humane world. Human beings have many other drives and passions besides the profit motive, including the spiritual, the social, and the altruistic. Welcome to the world of social business, where the creative vision of the entrepreneur is applied to today's most serious problems: feeding the poor, housing the homeless, healing the sick, and protecting the planet. | |
