“Real community produces an ecosystem in which every member is deeply embedded, not a collection of relationships that can be picked up and moved if the owner desire it.” 

I thought how this book explains fragile neighborhoods and how we as a collective can bring them to a state of flourishing was very well researched and explained. 

I can also say that yes this book was a little dry. I definitely had to force myself to continue reading. I think the point was made way before the book ended, but I can understand that the author wanted to give us real life examples of organizations that are doing well. In my opinion I did not need such long chapters of each example.

This is definitely a read to inform not entertain.
