Recenzii

'The Philanthropy Reader is a significant addition to the growing body of knowledge about the theory and practice of effective giving. In one volume, readers can now find the full range of ideas that have shaped the field in recent decades by some of the field’s most interesting and provocative thought leaders. This book is at once a great place to start for newcomers to philanthropy, a compelling resource for scholars and teachers, and a place where practitioners can find the concepts and frameworks they need to raise their quality of their giving.' - Professor Peter Frumkin, Faculty Director, Center for Social Impact Strategy, University of Pennsylvania, USA
'This reader is the number one address for anyone who wants to get familiar with the study of philanthropy. The editors have compiled the most comprehensive and systematic collection of major contributions to date – highly recommended to practitioners, students and scholars.' - Professor Helmut Anheier, Dean, Hertie School of Governance, Germany
'As an accessible and concise collection of key texts on "elite philanthropy" offering global insights into monetary giving by donors and institutions, this reader is an invaluable and timely reference point for scholars on the African continent as "African philanthropy" and "philanthropy in Africa" is on the horizon as a multidisciplinary field of study at the university level.' - Susan Wilkinson-Maposa, University of Cape Town, South Africa and author of The Poor philanthropist: how and why the poor help each other
‘Michael Moody and Beth Breeze travel widely across time and space in this one-of-a-kind reader on the art of giving and its consequences for our lives. They artfully balance policy proposals with philosophical considerations and historical accounts, and they give voice to critics as well as advocates of philanthropy. A must have!' - Olivier Zunz, Commonwealth Professor, University of Virginia, USA and author of Philanthropy in America
'A much-needed selection, this is a treasury of perspective amidst the blur of daily declarations of disruption. Ably curated by two leaders in our field, this is bound to be a standard resource for students and practitioners.' - Amir Pasic, Dean, Lilly Family School of Philanthropy, Indiana University, USA
'An invaluable and comprehensive resource for every student and practitioner with an interest in philanthropy.' - Johanna Mair, Professor, Hertie School of Governance, Germany, Visiting Scholar, Stanford Center on Philanthropy and Civil Society, USA and Academic Editor of Stanford Social Innovation Review
'A trove of ideas, debates, findings and recommendations for the study, practice and policy of philanthropy, this marvelous collection of essential essays will guide students of philanthropy for generations to come.' - Professor René Bekkers, Head of Research, Department of Philanthropic Studies, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, The Netherlands
