The Life You Can Save

In this thought-provoking book, philosopher Peter Singer challenges us to confront our moral obligations to the world’s poorest. With compelling arguments and real-life examples, he makes a persuasive case for why we should give more. I found myself nodding along, then squirming uncomfortably as he pushed me to reconsider my own choices. Singer’s clear prose and logical reasoning shine through, but it’s the human stories that truly moved me. A transformative read that left me questioning how I can make a bigger difference.
