Client Earth Shortlisted for the Business Book Awards 2018

Client Earth by James Thornton and Martin Goodman is shortlisted for the Business Book Awards 2017, in the Judge's Choice category.

Who will stop the planet from committing ecological suicide? The UN? Governments? Activists? Corporations? Engineers? Scientists? Lawyers may not immediately come to mind but they provide new rules to legislatures, see that they are enforced, tackle big business to ensure money flows into cultural change, and keep us informed. Lawyers who take the Earth as their client are exceptional and inspirational and James Thornton is one of them. Client Earth, co-authored by him and Goodman, is an account of their work saving the planet in the courtroom.

The Business Book Awards celebrate the work of authors who have shared their industry or market knowledge, experience and expertise in published book form. Winners will be announced on March 16 at the Grange Hotel in London.
