Editorial Reviews
The New York Times Book Review, Alan Wolfe
Ladd's book is a welcome corrective to any hysteria about the state of civic American left over from the publication of [Robert Putnam's] Bowling Alone.
Review
Seymour Martin Lipset author of American Exceptionalism a Double-Edged Sword The thesis that voluntary associations produce or sustain democracy is an old one. To test or elaborate it historically or comparatively requires reliable information...[which] is very difficult to obtain. Ladd has done this for the United States. We are in his debt.
