Review
"This is a neat book. Grounded in his study of eight voluntary, grassroots organizations in 'Smallville', Milofsky shows that their participants are linked in a network of shared values, community obligations and a shared history together from which they derive their sense of community. In this way, they have become 'transorganizations', a key concept that Milofsky introduces to make sense of their overlapping purposes and embeddedness in the same community. This book opens our eyes to the creative strategic possibilities that can be seen in the re-birth of local, voluntary and grassroots associations developing all around us." --Joyce Rothschild, Professor, School of Public & International Affairs, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University
Review
"Using carefully accumulated and meticulously analysed case studies of associations and small nonprofits, Dr Milofsky succeeds well in throwing new theoretical light onto the hitherto neglected area of community-level organizational challenges. This book will be warmly welcomed by both students and practitioners of grassroots public action." (Margaret Harris, Emeritus Professor of Voluntary Sector Organization, Aston Business School, UK )
