Sympathy and System in Giving is a book written by Elwood Street and published in 1921. The book is a study of the relationship between sympathy and system in charitable giving. The author argues that while sympathy is an important factor in giving, it is not enough on its own. A systematic approach is needed to ensure that charitable resources are used effectively and efficiently. The book is divided into three parts. The first part discusses the nature of sympathy and its role in charitable giving. The author argues that sympathy is a natural human emotion and that it is an important factor in motivating people to give. However, he also notes that sympathy can be unreliable and that it is often influenced by personal biases and prejudices. The second part of the book focuses on the importance of a systematic approach to giving. The author argues that a systematic approach is necessary to ensure that charitable resources are used effectively and efficiently. He discusses various methods of giving, such as direct giving, giving through intermediaries, and giving through organizations. The third part of the book examines the relationship between sympathy and system in giving. The author argues that a balance must be struck between these two factors. While sympathy is important, it must be tempered by a systematic approach to ensure that charitable resources are used in the most effective and efficient manner possible. Overall, Sympathy and System in Giving is a thoughtful and insightful study of the relationship between sympathy and system in charitable giving. The book provides a valuable perspective on the importance of a systematic approach to giving and the need to balance this approach with the natural human emotion of sympathy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
