This book is a masterpiece, and an important one. It is not only about generosity, but is itself an act of generosity, profound and compelling. I want everyone I know to read this - and everyone I don't know, too * Andrew Solomon, NYT-bestselling author of Far From the Tree, Wellcome Book Prize winner, National Book Award winner and 2002 Pulitzer Prize finalist * This book was a much-needed gift to my weary and news-battered heart. Chris Anderson presents an inspiring body of evidence to support the tremendous and transformative power of generosity - that most beautiful of human impulses. Infectious Generosity is a combination of inarguable data and incredibly moving stories... I flew through these pages with an increasing sense of joy, and was left inspired and hopeful * Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Eat, Pray, Love * Concise and profound * Alain de Botton, author and philosopher * Warning: reading this book may give you an irresistible urge to get up, and take action. Infectious generosity has the potential to spread far and wide, and radically change the world. Simply a wonderful book * Rutger Bregman, bestselling author of Humankind * Truly inspiring! It will change the way you see the world around you * Elizabeth Dunn, Professor of Social Psychology * A beautiful book-lucid, warm, intelligent, and persuasive * Steven Pinker, author and Professor of Psychology, Harvard University * An inspiring, timely book about how to bring out the best in people . . . A joyful road map away from a polarized, selfish society to the hopeful, humane place where we should be * Kirkus, starred review *More details
