About this title: A new edition, with a new introduction, of one of the most widely discussed interpretations of American society in the 20th century. The authors' attack on "utilitarian individualism' and their antidote for societal ills--a quest for democratic community--has become more relevant with the passage of time.

"The gist: Individualism (whether economic or spiritual) cannot provide meaning, however worthy the freedom it offers may be. Nor can the weak forms of association found in "lifestyle enclaves," inhabited as they are only by similar people who join seeking personal fulfillment. A meaningful life can only be lived in a community, sustained by tradition and by service to others."
