The Moral Obligations of Money (w/ Princeton's Peter Singer)

Author of The Life You Can Save says it is our moral duty to help the world’s poor

Peter Singer is the Ira W. DeCamp Professor of Bioethics at Princeton University, described by The New Yorker as “the world’s most influential living philosopher.” He is the founder of The Life You Can Save, an organization named after his book of the same name.

Peter advocates that it is our moral duty to give generously—far beyond what we currently do—to improve the lives of people living in extreme poverty. Bill and Melinda Gates have praised the book, saying it “will change the way you think about philanthropy.”

The 10th anniversary edition of The Life You Can Save is available for free in both audio and e-book formats on the website TheLifeYouCanSave.org.
