I thought this was part memoir, part guidebook into doing what you feel is right. This is a passionate view of how it's like to be of service for others. Kinds of service is broken down into groups: social/political struggle, community service, personal/private gestures, charity work, government sanctioned activities, religious sanctioned activities, and service to country. For anyone who has the desire to help others.
