«Entertaining and gripping . . . For those at the helm, the philanthropic plutocrats and aspiring "change agents" who believe they are helping but are actually making things worse, it's time for a reckoning with their role in this spiraling dilemma»
Joseph Stiglitz, New York Times Book Review
«A splendid polemic. . . Giridharadas writes brilliantly on the parasitic philanthropy industry»
Economist
«Trenchant, provocative and well-researched. . . Read it and beware»
Martha Lane Fox, Financial Times Books of the Year
«Hugely enjoyable. . . A spirited examination of the hypocrisy of the super-rich who claim they are helping the world»
Aditya Chakrabortty, Guardian
«Giridharadas isn't afraid to speak his mind, even if it means taking down some of the most powerful people on the planet. . . He has started a movement with this scathing critique of a society that rewards monopolistic models, faux philanthropy and protects the interests of a wealthy few»
Tabitha Goldstaub, Forbes
«A fierce book. . . What gives Giridharadas's heartfelt critique such force is that he is a heretic, someone chosen for the equivalent of the priesthood in the new religion of philanthropy who had a revelation and decided to renounce the faith»
Iain Martin, The Times
