Where to buy this ebookRobert Wuthnow finds that those who are most involved in acts of compassion are no less individualistic than anyone else--and that those who are the most intensely individualistic are no less involved in caring for others. "Wuthnow's writing is renowned within sociological discourse for being lucid, jargon-free, and insightful--all characteristics of this newest work. . . . [Wuthnow] has made a provocative and stimulating case."--James A. Mathisen, Christianity Today Endorsement: "Vigorously argued, beautifully written, drawing intelligently on evidence from surveys and from some extraordinary interviews, Acts of Compassion sheds a great deal of light on a central area of American life, namely volunteerism and charity. . . . A book for the serious scholar and the concerned layperson alike."--Robert N. Bellah, coauthor of "Habits of the Heart" and "The Good Society" Other Princeton books authored or coauthored by Robert Wuthnow:
