George Soros is one of the worlds leading philanthropists. Over the past thirty years, he has provided more than $8 billion to his network of foundations, known collectively as the Open Society Foundations, for projects around the world and in the United States. This new book details for the first time his vision for philanthropy, and explains the innovative ways the Foundations have supported the concept of open society, the cornerstone of Soross commitment to democracy, justice, and human rights. Soros is celebrated for his brilliant financial and economic insights and his investment strategies. But his contribution to philanthropy and the impact of his generosity is equally impressive. This book reveals the thinking and practice that drives a lesser known aspect of this remarkable mans life, his goals for society, and his philosophy.
