enjoyable read - very accessible to people who don't know anything about philanthropy (or capitalism!) the authors also include these cool boxes that give lots of intriguing history. Well done!
Philanthrocapitalism: How the Rich are Trying to Save the World and Why We Should Let Them December 19, 2008 S. Wixley (London) 8 out of 9 found this review helpful
This is the most comprehensive guide that I've come across on contemporary global giving. And it's a really enjoyable and entertaining read to boot.
The authors put the mega-philanthropy of Bill Gates/Warren Buffet/Tom Hunter etc into context and give interesting insights (and a few juicy titbits) into the motivations of these donors and the pros and cons of their approach. Read it!
