Her, A Problem from Hell: America and the Age of Genocide was on my Favorite Do-Good Book of 2007 list. PhilanTopic included the book on its list of Best Philanthropy-Related Books of 2008. This was probably the book that moved me the most in 2008. What are some your favorite do-good books from 2008?
