{"product_id":"9780465008230","title":"Who Really Cares: The Surprising Truth About Compassionate Conservatism -- America's Charity Divide--Who Gives, Who Doesn't, and Why It Matters","description":"\u003cp\u003eWe 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 \u003ci\u003eWho Really Cares\u003c\/i\u003e, 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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Basic Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48000505676016,"sku":"9780465008230","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780465008230","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
