«The New Philanthropists» is the essay by Charles and Elizabeth Handy on philanthropy, published by William Heinemann in hardcover (208 pages, in English).
The book portrays a new generation of philanthropists who, after making their fortune, apply their energy and professional skills to help those in need directly. With interviews and photographs, it shows sustainable direct-aid projects, such as a hotelier who cooks for the homeless or a gallery owner who creates an oncology center.
Originally published in 2006, it brings together Charles Handy's text and Elizabeth Handy's photographic portraits, with the subtitle «The New Generosity».
For business and economics readers interested in philanthropy and real stories of social aid.
Charles Brian Handy, CBE was an Irish author and philosopher who specialised in organisational behaviour and management. Among the ideas he advanced are the "portfolio career" and the "shamrock organization".
