"David Callahan has performed a public service by assembling a
striking body of information on a fundamental aspect of
21st-century America." --Robert G. Kaiser, The Washington Post
"Callahan offers a peek inside a rarefied, poorly understood world
with ever greater power to remake the broader world." --Michelle
Cottle, The New York Times Book Review "A convincing argument...
Callahan is intimately familiar with today's living donors and how
they are spending their money, and his book is replete with
examples of philanthropists that are upending the democratic
process." --Alana Semuels, The Atlantic "[A] fascinating look into
perhaps one of the least understood trends in the public square."
--Dan Kaplan, Booklist (Starred Review) "An intriguing look at the
world of big-ticket philanthropy... An eye-opening view of a vast
sector of the economy that lies in the shadows but has undue
influence, for ill or good." --Kirkus
