Uprooting and Development. Dilemmas of Coping with Modernization, Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 1980, Paperback/***

Uprooting has to do with one of the fundamental properties of human life-the need to change-and with the personal and societal mecha nisms for dealing with that need. As with the more general problems of change, uprooting can be a time of human disaster and desolation, or a time of adaptation and growth into new capacities. Publisher: Springer-Verlag New York Inc.
