Excerpt from Community Life and Civic Problems

The conception underlying the book is the Biblical propo sitiou that no man liveth to himself alone. All his life he dwells, works, and plays with other men who are associated with him for reasons like his own in various kinds of groups. In short, human life is group life. Man enters the world as a member of the family group, as a child he receives educa tion in a school group, for religious solace and inspiration he usually depends on the church group, in daily occupation he works with others in industrial groups, to secure safety and certain services he is a member of political groups. His dependence on others and the dependence of others on him.
