This book examines the nature of community as it currently exists in our increasingly metropolitan society. It tests a century of sociological theory and research with the concentrated study of a small Midwestern community in metropolitan Ohio. The final analysis is a quantitative and qualitative detailing of the community's geographical and social settings, creating a comprehensive picture of community life.
