520    "In the aftermath of the Vietnam War, a large portion of 
       the population had become disenchanted with the American 
       way of life that they did not feel they belonged to. While
       some openly revolted in the streets, others took to 
       turning away from the mainstream and headed toward a new 
       world. Utopian visions, manifesting themselves in the form
       of communes, were aimed at breaking the bonds of 
       capitalism, big business, and the reigning oligarchy and 
       were popping up throughout the country. The San Francisco 
       Bay Area was the hotbed of these communes, and from the 
       Height-Ashbury in San Francisco, east to Berkeley's 
       protest hub at Sproul Plaza, and south to Oakland's Black 
       Panther's communal households, this is an exploration of 
       this unique cultural revolution of the 1960s and 1970s. 
       The history and vision of communal living is investigated 
       in a series of essays aimed at explaining just what these 
       communes were, how lives were lived within them, and what 
       their goals entailed"--Provided by publisher.
