John and Connie collaborate on a brilliant book that begins to unpeal the complexity of building supportive networks and communities - where ALL people can live together. Thoughtful, analytical - wise - this leads readers though examples - with solid theoretical backing - to understand why things don't work - and what we can do to make a difference - and make it work - for each other.
