Private foundations have been the dynamo of social change since their invention at the beginning of the last century.

Joel Fleishman knows the sector like few others, and in this groundbreaking book he explains both the history of foundationswith their fledgling beginnings in the era of the robber barons seeking social respectabilitythrough to the present day. This book shows how, why foundations matters, and how the future of foundations can provide a vital spur to the engine of the American, and the world’s, economyif they are properly established and run
