"And by the way, the United States is number 20 on the list of the richest countries in per capita giving to the poorest of the poor--i.e., you're at the bottom of the class. And the reason no one knows that is you can always say you're giving more than anyone else, and you are giving more than anyone else, but not per capita. It's just because you're a bigger country. If we use Europe as a comparison to America, then you're in the dust."

Berkshire Publishing Group is a U.S.-based publisher specializing in books with a global perspective. Our goal is to help Americans, and others, better understand the world we share. This means providing material that offers new points of view. Our next publication for students, and journalists, too, is the first general resource to explore the global role and image of the United States, from its founding to the present. This work is called Global Perspectives on the United States. See http://www.berkshirepublishing.com/brw/product.asp?projID=52 for details. Two of the three volumes will be published in November 2006, and the third volume in April 2007.
