Progressive Community Organizing: Reflective Practice in a Globalizing World
"Progressive Community Organizingis that most unusual and welcome of contributions to the world of social work scholarship...[it] represents a new and vital direction for social work...If you read one book on organizing this year, I would recommend that you consider Pyles's pulsing work. Putting the social back into social work, the book helps us understand the joy of creating a better world while connecting local organizing with global forces and movements to create change around the world."- Benjamin Shepard, Ph.D., LMSW., in theJournal of Progressive Human Services
