The Good It Promises, the Harm It Does is the first book-length volume to critically engage with Effective Altruism (EA). It brings together writers from diverse activist and scholarly backgrounds to explore a variety of unique grassroots movements and community organizing efforts and reveals the weakness inherent within the readymade, top-down solutions that EA offers in response to many global problems.
