Profits With Principles The Amazing Story of Anita Roddick & the Body Shop
By: Anita Roddick
256 pp. Crown Publishing 1991
Review by: Lydia Morris Brown
|
A serendipitous work that looks at the intriguing life and career of Anita Roddick founder of the Body Shop-an international cosmetics chain of more than 600 shops. Roddick, the voice of principle and change, details how she has become one of the most outspoken activist businesswomen of the decade. Anita Roddick envisioned The Body Shop as a force for social change-as a lobbyist campaigning for environmental and human rights issues and a communicator/educator. Body and Soul addresses the social responsibilities of business in relation to maintaining the bottom line.
