I finally got around to reading, Mindy Fullilove's amazing book, Root Shock and I promise to get on here with a review.
My reaction to the book, was much like the one I had when I first came across The Death & Life of Great American Cities, in that the author has come across a concept and way of thinking that is both eye opening and so obviously correct.
At the same time, one thirsts for more knowledge and detail. There should be a library on this subject alone. Why hasn't it been studied more?
To paraphrase Robert A. Caro, To really understand power, one must study it's effect on the powerless.
