Challenged both democratic and conservative ideologies. At times perhaps a little esoteric, but nonetheless, a strong application intended to transform our ideas about what it means to be a community, to live as empowered citizens rather than "consumers", stop waiting for leaders to save us, to restore trust where it is broken and ultimately (and after a long time of hard work and persistence) end political suffering. Block makes it seem doable. Found myself getting the most out of the details. Might not be great for skimmers.

Used the textbook for a RP course. It is an easy read but very informative.

I love this book and have purchased it as a gift for our pastor. It gives no-nonsense advice on creating and maintaining communities.

This is an amazing book. Block really puts together a lot of thoughts and concepts from various sources concerning the nature of community and makes them real and present.
