Book Reviews of Socially Responsible Investing : Making a Difference and Making Money

Book Review: This book is a key in the door of freedom for investors!
Summary: 5 Stars

This is the best book I've read in over a year! The author is a skilled writer with a powerful, useful message. She teaches complex ideas in plain language and is easy to understand. One of the "ah-ha!" moments for me was how she helped me see that my fear of understanding finance and investments was because I didn't want to become a cause of human suffering just to make enough to retire comfortably, and that investments in stocks and bonds have traditionally caused companies to focus only on profits (at any cost). She gave me a way to invest with a conscience, and to live my values. I am very grateful, and wholeheartedly recommend this book.
