Summary

John Studzinski argues that giving involves more than donating money. He explores how time, abilities, attention and personal involvement can help other people and support communities.

The book presents an entrepreneurial approach to generosity, encouraging readers to identify what they can contribute. Its case is for engaged action rather than a single measure of a good life.
