Insightful Community

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago

This volume does an excellent job of striking a balance between the science necessary to be useful and credible and the sense of engagement that is true to the social construct of community. I found it careful, thorough and thoughtful rather than dry. It is a textbook, not a work geared for the general audience so it does require some background and some effort. But it is an excellent and insightful text.
