Book Review - Doing Virtuous Business by Theodore Malloch

Doing Virtuous Business is a rigorous academic tale of how businesses can succeed by building their spiritual capital, complete with many case stories explaining this theory.  Theodore Malloch goes into great detail of how people of all faiths can weave their faith into their work, and how it is proven to bring them more success- through integrity and passion- and show how companies have recovered from great tragedy because of their spiritual capital.

Personally, I didn’t really enjoy this book.  Like I mentioned in the last paragraph, it was intense, and there were tons of big words I didn’t understand.  It is definitely a collegiate-style study of businesses, and I either missed a lot or it all went over my head.  It seemed to me that this book wasn’t really about that much, except using really big words to not say a lot.  But hey, I’m not an academic by any means!
