The Hungry Spirit: Beyond Capitalism : A Quest for Purpose in the Modern World - Rilegato

Praise for Charles Handy and The Hungry Spirit:

"The Hungry Spirit is particularly timely."
--Times Literary Supplement

"[Handy's] jargon-free observations pack more power because of their clarity and prescriptive nature...his writings don't just affect companies; they often hit individuals in a powerful way, like the advice of a trusted friend or relative."
--Fortune

"Handy excels at stirring controversy--and thought."
--Business Week

"Anyone exposed to long-term, pick-of-the-month guru rumblings or mind-boggling businessbabble will think they have wandered into a clear spot in the forest when they encounter Handy for the first time...His writing is crisp and lucid, and his grasp on the human dilemma is remarkably encompassing."
--Chicago Tribune

"Handy is...a stimulating thinker who offers a warm sense of hope for the future...He has the persuasiveness of a preacher and the literariness of the anecdotal Irish storyteller...The Hungry Spirit will...be an uplifting experience for anyone seeking a philosophy in a world short of well-expressed humanist creeds."
--Independent

"Charles Handy [is] arguably Britain's most respected management writer."
