Fascinating biography of how a businessman earned and gave away over a billion dollars. Interesting people, amazing risks and successes, and provides background on the "Celtic Tiger" and other turnarounds that were receiving anonymous major donations. Hopes to inspire other folks to actively target their donations while still alive. Have to wonder how much he has already influenced Gates, Buffett, and thousands of other people that he has worked with and helped to help people help themselves. Well worth reading...
