If you want to help create a more equitable world but don t know where to start, Infectious Generosity is for you. Bill Gates, GatesNotes The bestselling author, media pioneer, and curator of TED explores one of humankind s defining but overlooked impulses, and how we can super-charge its potential to build a hopeful futureLet s face it: Recent years have been tough on optimists.
Hopes that the Internet might bring people together have been crushed by the ills of social media. Is there a way back?As head of TED, Chris Anderson has had a ringside view of the world s boldest thinkers sharing their most uplifting ideas.
Inspired aby them, he believes that it s within our grasp to turn outrage back into optimism. It all comes down to reimagining one of the most fundamental human virtues: generosity. What if generosity could become infectious generosity? Consider how a London barber began offering haircuts to people experiencing homelessness and catalyzed a movement how two anonymous donors gave $10,000 each to two hundred strangers and discovered that most recipients wanted to pay it forward with their own generous acts how TED itself transformed from a niche annual summit into a global beacon of ideas aby giving away talks online, allowing millions access to free learningIn telling these inspiring stories, Anderson has given us the first page-turner ever written about human generosity (Elizabeth Dunn).
More important, he offers a playbook for how to embark on our own generous acts whether gifts of money, time, talent, connection, or kindness and to prime them, thanks to the Internet, to have self-replicating, even world-changing, impact.
