Synopsis
Once we bowled in leagues, usually after work -- but no longer. This seemingly small phenomenon symbolizes a significant social change that Robert Putnam has identified in this brilliant volume,Bowling Alone,whichThe Economisthailed as "a prodigious achievement."Drawing on vast new data that reveal Americans' changing behavior, Putnam shows how we have become increasingly disconnected from one another and how social structures -- whether they be PTA, church, or political parties -- have disintegrated. Until the publication of this groundbreaking work, no one had so deftly diagnosed the harm that these broken bonds have wreaked on our physical and civic health, nor had anyone exalted their fundamental power in creating a society that is happy, healthy, and safe.Like defining works from the past, such asThe Lonely CrowdandThe Affluent Society,and like the works of C. Wright Mills and Betty Friedan, Putnam'sBowling Alonehas identified a central crisis at the heart of our society and suggests what we can do., Once we bowled in leagues, usually after work--but no longer.

  • Very relevant to our culture then and now. Accurately depicts the progression of our Social Malady

    I would highly recommend this book for anyone seeking a practical insight/knowledge of our societal disconnect. This dilemma of increasingly impersonal interaction and growing isolation, not only on a personal level but within the family unit. No doubt will have an adverse effect in our communities all the way to the National level. Highly recommended.
