false 5089411 1 According to an old saying, "We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give." In 21 brief and insightful essays, Richard B. Gunderman shows us that the key to more rewarding giving can be found by looking beyond mere donations of money. With a more inclusive view of giving that considers the needs and opportunities of donors as well as recipients, he argues that the amount of money changing hands is an inadequate measure of benevolence, and that some of the grandest forms of generosity involve no money at all. Exploring the ethical core of sharing, examining its importance for both those who receive and those who give, here is a book to enrich our lives and deepen our understanding of what it means to share wealth. 5156140 4 2008 We Make a Life by What We Give (Philanthropic and Nonprofit Studies) total:1|4:1| 1 4 7 0 0 0 false false Wed Nov 04 18:15:42 -0800 2009 Wed Nov 04 18:15:42 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Thu Jul 30 19:44:17 -0700 2009 Thu Jul 30 19:44:17 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sat Jul 18 09:32:22 -0700 2009 Sat Jul 18 09:32:22 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sat Mar 14 17:17:28 -0700 2009 Sat Mar 14 17:17:28 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Thu Feb 26 15:20:38 -0800 2009 Thu Feb 26 15:20:38 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Fri Jan 23 09:25:24 -0800 2009 Fri Jan 23 09:26:07 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Mon Dec 08 20:27:13 -0800 2008 Mon Dec 08 20:27:24 -0800 2008 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=5089411
