"...Accomplished philanthropy experts Nathan Chappell, Brian Crimmins, and Michael Ashley deliver a startlingly insightful exploration of the decline of American generosity.

You'll discover how to help reignite the radical connection between us and value-driven organizations that strive to improve life on Earth.
