Sympathy and System in Giving (Classic Reprint)

Angebote / Angebote:

Excerpt from Sympathy and System in Giving I have attempted to write it in the same manner that, by personal conversation, I would try to explain what all this charity is about to some broker or merchant or lawyer friend of mine who had been buried in his business or professional interests and had suddenly come to the realization that while he wanted to help others, he wanted to help effectively and to know why and how he was helping. My chief personal reaction after writing this book has been a feeling Of tremendous humility at the amount that I have discovered I do not know about social service, and of hopelessness at ever being able to know thoroughly a subject so deeply rooted in human history and so various in its manifestations at the present day.
