BILL CLINTON’S ”Giving: How Each of Us Can Change the World” is less a book than a stump speech, an extended argument for the ripple effect of benevolent acts, whether of money, time, expertise or talent.
Clinton’s approach is reminiscent of his State of the Union addresses: Bring up a problem, then introduce someone who has faced it or significantly addressed it. So we get vignettes about Bill and Melinda Gates on the one hand, and on the other about Oseola McCarty, the Mississippi washerwoman who saved $150,000 over 75 years and used it to endow an African-American scholarship fund.
