Written by engaged scholars and practitioners, "Transforming Cities
and Minds" is an "instrument-for-action" on the problems faced by
U.S. cities that have suffered from decades of disinvestment. The
book advocates the concept of reciprocal knowledge: real learning
on both sides, campus and city, through a complex network of human
relationships.
Across the country from Camden to Oakland, the contributors
engaged with community partners--hospitals, churches, community
development corporations, community foundations, and other rooted
institutions--to help restore old cities to life. Their
collaborative thesis project engaged them with one another and
university staff; it may offer a new paradigm for graduate
education.
