Infectious Generosity: The Ultimate Idea Worth Spreading-有感染力的慷慨

作为TED的负责人,Chris Anderson 直面世界上最大胆的思想家们所分享的那些最振奋人心的想法。受到他们的启发,他相信我们有能力将愤怒转化为乐观。这一切都归结为重新思考人类最基本的美德之一:慷慨。如果慷慨可以变成有传染性的慷慨呢?

他提供了一个剧本,告诉我们如何开始自己的慷慨行为——无论是金钱、时间、才能、关系还是善意的礼物——拜互联网所赐,它们具备了自我复制,甚至改变世界的影响。

书名:Infectious Generosity: The Ultimate Idea Worth Spreading《有感染力的慷慨》

作者:Chris J. Anderson

简介:From the bestselling author, media pioneer, and curator of TED, an inspiring book about one of humankind’s defining but overlooked impulses, and how we can super-charge its potential to build a hopeful future

“I flew through these pages with an increasing sense of joy. I hope that millions read this book.”—Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Eat, Pray, Love

Let’s face Recent years have been tough on optimists. Hopes that the Internet might bring people together have been crushed by the ills of social media. Is there a way back?

As head of TED, Chris Anderson has had a ringside view of the world’s boldest thinkers sharing their most uplifting ideas. Inspired by them, he believes that it’s within our grasp to turn outrage back into optimism. It all comes down to reimagining one of the most fundamental human generosity. What if generosity could become infectious generosity? Consider 

• how a London barber began offering haircuts to people experiencing homelessness—and catalyzed a movement
• how two anonymous donors gave $10,000 each to two hundred strangers and discovered that most recipients wanted to “pay it forward” with their own generous acts
• how TED itself transformed from a niche annual summit into a global beacon of ideas by giving away talks online, allowing millions access to free learning

In telling these inspiring stories, Anderson has given us “the first page-turner ever written about human generosity” (Elizabeth Dunn). More important, he offers a playbook for how to embark on our own generous acts—whether gifts of money, time, talent, connection, or kindness—and to prime them, thanks to the Internet, to have self-replicating, even world-changing, impact.
