[Book Excerpt—The Challenge for Business and Society: From Risk to Reward](https://www.pyxeraglobal.org/book-excerpt-challenge-business-society-risk-reward/)

Stan Litow’s new book, *[The Challenge for Business and Society: From Risk to Reward](http://www.wiley.com/buy/9781119433880)* published by John Wiley & Sons, presents a fact-based assessment of the role that corporations have played in society both historically and currently and perhaps most important, offers a road map for a more promising future.

The genesis of Stan’s book was the current round of criticism of business, some justified and some not, from both the left and the right as being the cause of all societal ills from income inequality to the shredding of the social safety net and stable employment. Stan uses the lens of history and fact, as well as his deep experience across sectors of the economy, as opposed to rhetoric, to provide a clear assessment of how the private sector, government, and civil society might work together to address some of the most daunting, critical challenges facing society, and do so, in a more scalable and sustainably effective way.
