Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This thought-provoking book tackles the vital question of shrinking communities in America, examining the consequences of centralization and the resulting human erosion. The author argues that the relentless migration of people from small towns and rural areas to metropolitan centers has created a myriad of problems, from traffic congestion and environmental degradation to social inequality and a loss of individual identity. By exploring the historical and economic forces driving this trend, the book sheds light on the complex dynamics at play. The author draws upon real-life examples to illustrate the challenges faced by small communities and proposes innovative solutions for revitalizing them. Ultimately, this book offers a compelling vision of a more balanced society where vibrant small communities coexist harmoniously with thriving metropolitan areas, enriching the lives of all Americans. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…

From the library of Adlai E. Stevenson (1930-2021), U.S. Senator from Illinois (1970-81), son of the Illinois governor (1900-65) who twice ran for the presidency and great-grandson of the vice president under Cleveland. The Stevensons were important figures in Bloomington for generations and all of them make appearances in this book.…
