Research on other-oriented motives that drive human behavior is among the most vibrant areas of study in contemporary social science. For example, in public administration, the concept of public service motivation has generated enthusiasm and drawn scholarship unlike perhaps any other topic in recent years (Perry, Hondeghem, and Wise 2010). Research on related constructs, such as prosocial motivation, altruism, and solidarity preferences, has also blossomed in other disciplines. Give and Take: A Revolutionary Approach to Success draws on this fast-growing and multidisciplinary body of research to illuminate why and under what circumstances helping others is a path to success.

Abstract
Research on other-oriented motives that drive human behavior is among the most vibrant areas of study in contemporary social science. For example, in public administration, the concept of public service motivation has generated enthusiasm and drawn scholarship unlike perhaps any other topic in recent years (Perry, Hondeghem, and Wise 2010). Research on related constructs, such as prosocial motivation, altruism, and solidarity preferences, has also blossomed in other disciplines. Give and Take: A Revolutionary Approach to Success draws on this fast-growing and multidisciplinary body of research to illuminate why and under what circumstances helping others is a path to success.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
