Everyone Claims They're Helping. Fine. Prove It.

Delusions of Helping challenges the moral credit we give governments, nonprofits, politicians, corporations, media, movements, experts, and ourselves simply for claiming to help.

It asks harder questions:

Did the helping actually help?

At what cost?

Who benefited?

What was the opportunity cost? Sharp, funny, and reality-tested, the book examines the gap between the story of helping and what actually happens in real life.
