Doing Good Better: How Effective Altruism Can Help You Make a Difference by William MacAskill

3.0

An interesting take on the economics of altruism. I can't argue with most of the author's points about maximizing the effectiveness of every dollar/hour you donate, however this book takes away the "warm & fuzzy" feeling that should be associated with "giving" & turns altruism into something robotic - which I could argue in turn might decrease "giving rates" among those who might otherwise be interested in doing so.
