Some Suggested Reading

Scott London is someone I came across this year when I was immersing myself in all things-civic engagement. Here's a snippet from the bio on his site:

Scott London is a California-based journalist whose work spans print, radio, and photography. He's published widely in newspapers and magazines, and has written, edited, and contributed to some 20 books and publications. In recent years, Scott has devoted much of his time to consulting with academic, government, and nonprofit leaders on issues related to social innovation and civic renewal. He has led several national studies and research projects aimed at understanding how social innovators do their work, the power of informal networks, the uses (and misuses) of collaboration in the nonprofit world, and how communities transform and renew themselves.

There are three especially valuable essays on his site, and I highly recommend reading them if you're interested in the notion of town hall meetings...or just have an interest in better communications within our communities.
