Recommendation
Researchers Patricia Snell Herzog and Heather E. Price break new ground in this report on American giving habits. Their analysis, based on comprehensive 2010 findings from the Science of Generosity Initiative, includes the large dynamics and small nuances that influence individual giving patterns. Herzog and Price make their academic source material accessible by referring to a dozen individual case studies that represent a cross-section of Americans. You’ll learn why wealthy people are not necessarily the most generous, and why some people donate time instead of money. Herzog and Price also offer simple suggestions for increasing generosity in your life. getAbstract recommends their analysis to academic, philanthropic and nonprofit organization professionals, as well as to readers curious about “who gives and why.”
