A reinterpretation and strategic overview of philanthropyits meaning and values, greatest accomplishments, current transformations, and future directionsbased on close analysis of historical sources, and 25 years' practical experience in all aspects of philanthropy. Chapter I: " Promethean Fire: the Archetype" from its first coinage in ancient Greece, in Prometheus Bound, philanthropia meant "the love of humanity", or of what it is to be human, an educational and cultural ideal; Chapter II: " Philanthropy's Finest Hour: the American Revolution" the Revolution as philanthropy in actionhow Classical philanthropy through voluntary associations produced a "purportedly philanthropic nation", created by and for philanthropy; Chapter III: " Philanthropy Yesterday and Today" how 20thcentury growth and professionalization made philanthropy paradigmatic, but neglected Classical values, and how we are now in a paradigmshift, in which philanthropy is being thoroughly transformed; Chapter IV: " The Future of Philanthropy" how the paradigmshift analysis illuminates issues facing Old Paradigm institutions, and current trends suggesting a probable future; Chapter V: " Philanthropy Reborn" how a possible New Paradigm, uniting Classical ideals with Internetbased operations, might benefit donors, grantmakers, philanthropic advisors, trustees, executive directors, scholars, media journalists, teachers and students, as well as civic, religious and political leaders. Appendix I: "Case Study: the Catalogue for Philanthropy in Massachusetts." Exemplifies the current paradigmshift. Appendix II: "A Taxonomic Tree of Philanthropy" A donorfriendly presentation of how the fields of philanthropy constitute a coherent whole.
