Summary

From the renowned and bestselling business guru, a new collection of biographies in the same vein as The New Alchemists. From Niall Mellon, who made his millions in the property boom in Ireland but is now working in South Africa to replace all the shacks in that country with breeze-block houses in time for the 2010 World Cup, to Jeff Gambin, a restaurateur in Sydney who gave up his up-market businesses to cook for the homeless every night, and who now feeds 500 people each day and 1,500 at Christmas, this collection of biographies will provide inspiring reading. The New Philanthropistsis the newest book from celebrated management guru Charles Handy, and is an excellent follow-up to his last book, The New Alchemists. It's a collection of brief biographies and photographs of successful and wealthy entrepreneurs who are using their money and their expertise to make a difference in the world.
