Kirjan My Journey in Philanthropy: Memoir, Reflective Essays & True Stories (2017) on kirjoittanut Louis J. Beccaria Phd. Kirjan kieli on englanti, ja sen on kustantanut Davco Advertising, Incorporated. Kirja on laajuudeltaan 158 sivua ja se on nidottu.

The book is part memoir, part reflective essays about philanthropy and non-profit issues, and part a rendition of over 32 true stories that show the sometimes humorous, unusual and quirky aspect of both sides of philanthropy - the giving and the receiving sides. The memoir section relates the aspects of my life that had an influence on my getting into philanthropy as a career. The 14 reflective essays are my thoughts, values and beliefs that have been developed over my 46-year non-profit and philanthropy career. Included in this is my coining of a new word - "philanthropoid" which is distinguished from the more well-known term of "philanthropist". This book will prove to be an interesting read for both newcomers to philanthropy as well as seasoned veterans.
