In his controversial study of America's giving habits, Arthur C. Brooks shatters stereotypes about charity in America-including the myth that the political Left is more compassionate than the Right. Brooks, a preeminent public policy expert, spent years researching giving trends in America, and even he was surprised by what he found. In Who Really Cares , he identifies the forces behind American charity: strong families, church attendance, earning one's own income (as opposed to receiving welfare), and the belief that individuals-not government-offer the best solution to social ills. But beyond just showing us who the givers and non-givers in America really are today, Brooks shows that giving is crucial to our economic prosperity, as well as to our happiness, health, and our ability to govern ourselves as a free people.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 214mmItem Length: 140mmItem Width: 22mmItem Weight: 340gAuthor: Arthur BrooksGenre: Society & CultureTopic: Social SciencesRelease Year: 2007 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
