We all know we should give to charity, but who really does? In his
controversial study of America's giving habits, Arthur C. Brooks shatters
stereotypes about charity in America-including the myth that the political
Left is more compassionate than the Right. Brooks, a preeminent public policy
expert, spent years researching giving trends in America, and even he was
surprised by what he found. In Who Really Cares, he identifies the forces
behind American charity: strong families, church attendance, earning one's own
income (as opposed to receiving welfare), and the belief that individuals-not
government-offer the best solution to social ills. But beyond just showing us
who the givers and non-givers in America really are today, Brooks shows that
giving is crucial to our economic prosperity, as well as to our happiness,
health, and our ability to govern ourselves as a free people.
