Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
A wideranging, surprising, and eloquently argued book that offers a pragmatic and erudite look at the innate human inclination toward nepotismfrom ancient Chinese clans to families like the Gores, Kennedys, and Bushes. Fascinating and wellresearched. Walter Isaacson, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Code Breaker and Steve JobsNepotism is one of those social habits we all claim to deplore in America; it offends our sense of fair play and our pride in living in a meritocracy. But somehow nepotism prevails; we all want to help our own and a quick glance around reveals any number of successful families whose sons and daughters have gone on to accomplish objectively great things, even if they got a little help from their parents.Bellow explores how nepotism has produced both positive and negative effects throughout history. As he argues, nepotism practiced badly or haphazardly is an embarrassment to all (including the incompetent beneficiary), but nepotism practiced well can satisfy a deep biological urge to provide for our children and even benefit society as a whole. In Praise of Nepotism is a judicious look at a controversial but timeless subject that has never been explored with such depth or candor, and a fascinating natural history of how families work.
