Book Overview
Mr. Carnegie's Conundrum delves into the mind of industrialist Andrew Carnegie as he grapples with the question of how best to distribute his vast fortune. Written by William Thomas Stead, this exploration provides insight into Carnegie's philanthropic philosophy during the Gilded Age. The book examines the challenges and opportunities associated with deploying substantial wealth for the betterment of society, focusing on Carnegie's belief in responsible giving rather than simply bequeathing fortunes to heirs.
Stead chronicles Carnegie's thought processes, exploring his desire to use his wealth to promote education, peace, and social progress. This book is a valuable resource for understanding the history of philanthropy and the ongoing debate surrounding wealth distribution and social responsibility. The title, " 40,000,000 What Shall I Do With It?", captures the essence of Carnegie's dilemma.
