1998 to 1999
Julian Wolpert, professor of Geography, Public Affairs and Urban Planning at the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs, Princeton University, will write a book on American charitable giving in the public and nonprofit sectors.

He will also look at regional differences in the sources, levels, and targeting of generosity.
