great transaction

my book arrived in perfect condition and within the time frame that the seller said that it would.

Remarkably succinct guide for community development workers

As someone who has been working across cultures and in community development for many, many years I rarely find a book as accessible as this little book and which I feel inclined to recommend to newbies going into practice. Si Kahn is a social worker and folk singer who knows his stuff. He bluntly talks about power and what it takes for ordinary people to achieve the power they must have to make a place for themselves in our modern world. I highly recommend it along with his other longer text, "Grass Roots Organizing". Read this along with "Getting to Yes" and you are ready to go out and make a difference!
