What is Philanthro-capitalism : How Giving Can Save the World about?

<p><P><b>From Buffett to Bono, how today&#8217;s leading philanthropists are revolutionizing the field, using new methods to have a vastly greater impact on the world.<P></b>For philanthropists of the past, charity was often a matter of simply giving money away. For the philanthrocapitalists&#8212;the new generation of billionaires who are reshaping the way they give&#8212;it&#8217;s like business. Largely trained in the corporate world, these &#8220;social investors&#8221; are using big-business-style strategies and expecting results and accountability to match. Bill Gates, the world&#8217;s richest man, is leading the way&#58; he has promised his entire fortune to finding a cure for the diseases that kill millions of children in the poorest countries in the world. <P>In <i>Philanthrocapitalism</i>, Matthew Bishop and Michael Green examine this new movement and its implications. Proceeding from interviews with some of the most powerful people on the planet&#8212;including Gates, Bill Clinton, Warren Buffett, Oprah Winfrey, and Bono, among others&#8212;they show how a web of wealthy, motivated donors has set out to change the world.</p>
