"Socrates claimed famously that one never loses by doing the right thing. Stephen Post and his contributors claim, a little less boldly, that at least the generous will, probably, stay healthyâ€”and, improving on Socrates, they support this claim with careful empirical science, impressive for its comprehensive detail.
