2. The chapters in this book have been chosen and designed with three things in mind:
a) ease of adoptability -- the authors performed content analyses of leading Management textbooks to ensure the book covers all the mainstream material, and is organized in chapters that follow a traditional planning, organizing, leading and controlling format
b) relevance to the social and ecological challenges students will face during their careers -- each chapter presents differences between FBL, TBL, and SET management. In particular, the book recognizes that the Triple Bottom Line approach is becoming the new dominant approach, and provides chapters on each of the three bottom lines: financial, ecological, and social well-being
c) engagement with students -- in addition to a reader-friendly format, each chapter starts with an engaging opening case, and concludes with an opportunity for students to consider the material in an entrepreneurial context (note that the book has been designed so that instructors who do not wish to have an entrepreneurial focus can easily drop that portion of the chapter)
