No Place Like Home: Building Sustainable Communities
(by Marcia Nozick, 1992, 237 pp., OUT OF PRINT)
Author Marcia Nozick challenges the conventional economic wisdom that puts "efficiency" ahead of human needs in this thought-provoking book. In critical yet easily accessible language, she proposes a five-point plan to return communities to sustainable economic development: economic self-reliance, ecological development, gaining community control over resources, building a community culture, and meeting individual needs. A must-read for community workers, researchers, urban planners and students.
