The Good Glow: Charity and the Symbolic Power of Doing Good

by Jessica LaBarbera, Chris O'Leary, Gary Painter, et al.

We praise those people who do things for others. But the symbolic power of giving means glow of 'goodness' that charity provides can be taken advantage of. Drawing on original data and Bourdieu's sociology, this book examines a wide range of charity examples to provide an entertaining critique of how contemporary charity works.
