This ninth volume in the series deals with a fascinating and
complex topic in the environment and behavior field. Neighborhoods
and com munities are in various stages of formation and transition
in almost every society, nation, and culture. A variety of
political, economic, and social factors have resulted in the
formation of new communities and the transformation of older
communities. Thus we see nomadic people set tling into stable
communities, new towns sprouting up around the world, continuing
suburban sprawl, simultaneous deterioration, re newal and
gentrification of urban areas, demographic changes in com munities,
and so on. As in previous volumes, the range of content, theory,
and methods represented in the various chapters is intended to be
broadly based, with perspectives rooted in several
disciplines-anthropology, history, psychology, sociology, urban
studies. Although many other disciplines also play an important
role in the study and understanding of neigh borhoods and community
environments, we hope that the contributions to this volume will at
least present readers with a broad sampling-if not a comprehensive
treatment-of the topic."
