Drawing on insights from organization and management sciences and innovation studies, the author outlines an evolutionary framework enabling a deeper understanding of how firms shape ecological strategies and interact to create inertia or change at the level of systems of production and consumption. This framework is applied to the coffee and automobile production and consumption systems, yielding insight into the complex dynamics through which such systems evolve in dealing with ecological impact. The book advances theoretical insight into business strategies and the natural environment and illuminates the dynamics of production and consumption systems.
Scholars, students and practitioners from organization and management sciences, innovation studies and industrial ecology interested in the relationship between business and the natural environment will find this book invaluable.

‘Creating Ecological Value is a timely contribution that matches recent trends in innovation economics suggesting that an evolutionary notion of system innovations and a sector-specific industrial dynamics perspective are a suitable analytical framework for the way in which firms address sustainability challenges through innovation.’

“我们不能期望通过缩小我们对单一公司的关注来解决我们今天面临的环境问题。我们需要更系统地思考。在他的书中,创造生态价值,Frank Boons采取了这一挑战。虽然他的研究始于探索公司通过的环境策略的多样性,但他在生产和消费系统水平旁边移动了分析,以了解这些策略的形状和改变它们。他的工作考虑了如何促进战略和新方法的传播,但也发现施加这些策略的系统是有弹性的,有时可以抵抗变化。他提供了大量的想法,因为我们考虑了市场体系如何作为整体解决环境问题。“

‘Humans as scientists and managers often draw on metaphors to help describe and understand the complex issues they observe or manage. As human activities begin to bump up against the constraints set by natural systems there is a tendency to search for metaphors from natural science – biomimicy or industrial ecology – have been around for some time now. In this book, Frank Boons explores the power of ideas from evolutionary science as metaphor to understand economic systems. This is complex work, but, he does it with skill; remembering that a metaphor is powerful not just in what it explains but even more in what it doesn’t serve to explain.’
