Psychological Sense of Community: Research, Applications, and Implications

by Christopher C. Sonn, Adrian T. Fisher, Brian J. Bishop

Book Overview

In this book, the authors have explored a series of different types of communities - moving from the basic idea of those based at a specific location all the way to virtual communities of the internet. The ways in which the communities operate, positively and negatively, what people get out of them and what they have to put into them, and the notion of being members of more than one community at the one time are considered.
