Community Operational Research: OR and Systems Thinking for Community Development (Contemporary Systems Thinking)

"This is the book I have been waiting for. Community OperationalResearch has shown that analysis can be used not only for, but also with, community groups, helping them to gain more control of their situations. What Midgley and Ochoa-Arias' volume does is provide not only rich examples of grass-roots practice, but also thought-provoking theoretical explorations. The editors have a point of view, but they allow space for debate with those who interpret Community OR differently."
