520    "How can we assess the ability of a place to respond to 
       challenges like migration, recession and disease? Places 
       which seem similar can respond very differently, and with 
       varying degrees of success, to external threats and to the
       interventions designed to manage them. In this ... work, 
       drawing on decades of research, Sandra Wallman explores 
       how we can measure and compare the resilience of 
       communities, looking in detail at neighbourhoods in London,
       Rome and Zambia. Each locale is examined as a system which
       is more or less open or closed; open systems tend to be 
       more resilient when faced with external challenges. As 
       well as being a fascinating study in its own right, the 
       book includes detailed accounts of the research methods 
       used, as well as a user-friendly typology for classifying 
       local systems, making it an invaluable tool for students, 
       researchers and policy-makers."--Publisher's website.
