"Social Capital, Community, and the importance of Human Relationships. This is the modern day interpretation of why non-profits and other community orgs do what they do, why it matters, and how we're all a part of it."
"This book las lots of wonderful and rich illustrations of ways that Americans have been working to bring Americans closer together. It shows the ways in which our independent, capitalist society has slowly been pulling apart our connections with one another, and how Americans are working on unique and artistic ways to bring us together once again."
