Social and Community Development

John Eversley taught community development at London Metropolitan University for 12 years. He is an experienced community worker. He now lives and mainly works in Northern Ireland.

John Eversley’s Social and Community Development transcends the conventional scope of introductory books. This work is not merely a descriptive account on the history, evolution and guiding principles of a field of science; it is, in fact, an invitation for debate and emancipation in the theory and practice of social and community development.
