The New York Times bestselling, groundbreaking investigation of how the global elite's efforts to "change the world" preserve the status quo and obscure their role in causing the problems they later seek to solve. An essential read for understanding some of the egregious abuses of power that dominate today's news.

Former New York Times columnist Anand Giridharadas takes us into the inner sanctums of a new gilded age, where the rich and powerful fight for equality and justice any way they can--except ways that threaten the social order and their position atop it. We see how they rebrand themselves as saviors of the poor; how they lavishly reward "thought leaders" who redefine "change" in winner-friendly ways; and how they constantly seek to do more good, but never less harm. We hear the limousine confessions of a celebrated foundation boss; witness an American president hem and haw about his plutocratic benefactors; and attend a cruise-ship conference where entrepreneurs celebrate their own self-interested magnanimity.

Giridharadas asks hard questions: Why, for example, should our gravest problems be solved by the unelected upper crust instead of the public institutions it erodes by lobbying and dodging taxes? He also points toward an answer: Rather than rely on scraps from the winners, we must take on the grueling democratic work of building more robust, egalitarian institutions and truly changing the world. A call to action for elites and everyday citizens alike.

Scent: Palo Santo, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
absolutely love the Palo Santo Chemo Body Wash by Cremo. The scent is warm, woodsy, and slightly sweet without being overpowering. It smells clean but elevated — like a subtle, high-end cologne that lingers just enough after you shower. The lather is rich and creamy, and a small amount goes a long way. It leaves my skin feeling clean and moisturized without that tight, dry feeling some body washes cause. The fragrance lasts for hours, which I appreciate because it layers well with other products. If you like warm, earthy scents with depth, this is a must-try. I will definitely be repurchasing!

Nice body care need not cost a fortune.
Scent: Palo Santo, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The Cremo product line is a favorite and Palo Santo is one that tops the list for us. We like the Cremo body care line's execution, variety, quality, anti- elitist price and inclusive availability. Palo Santo is softly sweet with just enough cardamom spice and papyrus for a round, smooth aroma with no sharp edges to annoy those around you. Just enough of the Cremo body wash frangrance lingers to keep you feeling fresh all day. This product lathers nicely and is neither too heavy nor too thin to use with a traditional wash cloth, loofah, natural or synthetic sponge, pouf or bath brush. Cremo body wash makes a nice foot soak and hand wash too. We fill a bottle to keep by the kitchen and bathroom sinks. Our wish is that the company produces large, minimally packaged refills to spare the plastic. Until then, please reuse and / or recycle the containers. NOTE: When selecting fragrance, ignore marketing and wear what appeals to you. Treat gender, age, price category snobbery and other target market gimmicks as irrelevant. Wear / use what you like, and not because it is purported to be "exclusive", someone told you to or that you cannot possibly be cool / alluring / beautiful / handsome or appear wealthy or celebrity-adjacent without it.

Scent: Bourbon & Oak, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The scent is incredible — warm, slightly sweet bourbon with a rich oak finish. It smells high-end without being overpowering. It lingers just enough to notice but doesn’t clash with cologne. Performance-wise, it delivers. It cleans thoroughly without stripping and leaves hair soft and manageable instead of dry or heavy. For a 2-in-1, it actually conditions well — which isn’t always the case with combo products. I originally bought it as part of a gift set for my father, and he’s since had me repurchase it four times — so that says everything. If you like warm, masculine, slightly woody scents and want something that performs as good as it smells, this one truly hits the ball on the head. Definitely a repeat buy.

Husbands Favorite!
Scent: Bourbon & Oak, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This brand is my husband's favorite! He uses the shampoo/conditioner and the body wash. He says it lathers and suds up pretty well. The smell is great and lasts a good while. The only thing is he wishes it came in a bigger bottle.

Next Level "Hotel" smells
Scent: Bourbon & Oak, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have been searching for a shampoo that not only leaves my hair feeling clean, but also smells great. Cremo has frequently checked a lot of boxes, and this shampoo is no exception.I adore the bourbon and oak scent. Despite giving some hotel shampoo vibes, it smells great once in the air, and I feel good showering with it. It leaves my hair feeling clean and no oily, but still soft. I have thicker hair, but this works in easily. Bottle came perfect, no leaks! Only complaint is I would like a larger bottle with a pump to user easier in the shower!
