Rating: - good book
Gray provides a broad overview of a number of popular arguments. The principle thesis of this text is that traditional accounting practices do not properly allocate environmental quality or compliance costs. Businesses therefore are prone to make decisions on the basis of thios flawed information which are both environmentally and financially harmful. Several pratical suggestions for modifying accounting systems are made, but no radical new ideas are presented.
