The super-rich are silently and secretly shaping our world. In this exploration of historical and contemporary philanthropy, bestselling author Paul Vallely reveals how this far-reaching change came about. He shows how giving has, variously, been a matter of honour, altruism, religious injunction, political control, moral activism, enlightened self-interest, public good, personal fulfilment and plutocratic manipulation.
