Building successful groups

[Russ Abbott]

David Sloan Wilson's new book, The Neighborhood Project: Using Evolution to Improve My City, One Block at a Time has just been published.  He looks for ways to make successful groups.  It sounds a lot like Elenor Ostrom's conclusions (on making a successful commons). They both make a lot of sense. Here's an NPR interview from today.

Thanks, Russ.  I will have a look when I get to a hot spot. 

 

He’s nothing if not persistent.
