Almost everyone -- regardless of income, available time, age, and skills -- can do something useful for others and, in the process, strengthen the fabric of our shared humanity. Former president Bill Clinton backs the validity of this buoyant assertion by describing the efforts of real-life givers, and the life-enhancing aspects of such good works. He shows how actions and deeds of private individuals and NGOs (nongovernmental organizations) can reinforce, supplement, and, if necessary, even replace government projects. His inspiring stories of men and women who gave up corporate careers to pursue humanitarian interests demonstrate the deep fulfillment that such giving brings. Like his bestselling My Life, Clinton's Giving is infused with the force and personal charisma of its author's personality. It takes a village, but it can start with just one villager.
