Product description

Review

"Homan's text is one of the most comprehensive texts for explaining the importance and value of community development as a critical strategy for building stronger, safer, and healthier communities and families. It also offers the theory and tools required for a student/practitioner to make positive change happen in the real world."

"The text is a great foundation text for developing community change and should be considered as a text and useful resource guide for developing practice into change."

I am currently in graduate school, majoring in Social Work with a focus in Public Policy. This book is one of several required text that I have. I gave a rating of 1 because I found tan tape covering portions of text on pages 478 and 479. I will not order from this seller again.
