Irresponsible Philanthropists: Being Some Chapters On The Employment Of Gentlewomen is a book written by E. Genna in 1881. The book focuses on the employment of women in philanthropic endeavors during the Victorian era. Genna argues that many women who engaged in philanthropy were doing so irresponsibly, without proper training or education. She also critiques the lack of organization and oversight in the philanthropic sector, which she believes leads to ineffective and even harmful outcomes. The book provides examples of both successful and unsuccessful philanthropic efforts by women, and offers suggestions for how to improve the field. Overall, Irresponsible Philanthropists is a thought-provoking critique of Victorian-era philanthropy and its impact on women.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
