The early attempts in community organization were an outcome of the serious problems i.e. problems of unemployment, poverty etc. faced by the communities. Thus grew up many organisations and social agencies to provide support to the community. Soon, it was realized that all these efforts need to be co-ordinated and streamlined so as to avoid duplicity of work and to reduce the gap in the delivery of services to the community. Let us look at the Philosophy of Community Organization, which may throw some light on this theme. Social Action is an individual, group or community effort within the framework of the social work philosophy and practice that aims to achieve social progress, to modify social policies and to improve social legislation and health and welfare services. Another model of community organization suggested by Rothman is that of social action. The book endeavours to provide all requirements of students and teachers to enable them to achieve success in community organization and related activities. If it prove to be of little value to the readers all efforts and hardships of the authors will amply be awarded. Less
