A Research Odyssey

Editorial Reviews

"àan exceptional book. Professor Hillery shares with the reader not only a coherent and illustrated substantive statement of his sociological theory of community, but he informs the reader about how step by step, he developed that theory over a period of thirty years. Professor Hillery's theoretical formulation on community will, in years to come, settle even more deeply into the position of a sociological classic."—Louis A. Zurcher, University of Texas, Austin
