5.0 out of 5 stars Sweeping and comprehensive, January 9, 2008

By	Norma Lazar (Queens, N.Y.) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

A must read for students and teachers in the field of community development. The anthology is an extremelly well edited and comprehensive compilation of articles. They are not only useful, but timely and vital to anyone interested in the problems and solutions of the urban community.
