As a NZer who recieved Doing Good Better through the book giveaway process, I can definitely say that it has had a significant impact on my decision to be more involved in EA and certainly triggered deeper thoughts surrounding career opportunitites, donating and eating habits. Furthermore I have also passed the book on to friends which I hope allows them to get as much benefit as I did. I am currently donating around 5% of income and plan on taking the 10% pledge next year as I enter my second year working full time, so from that perspective the book has certainly had a measurable impact.
As a beginner exploring normative ethics this looks very helpful. Thanks!
