Co-edited by David E. Kyvig and Myron A. Marty, Joining In: Exploring The History Of Voluntary Organizations by Karen J. Blair is a remarkably informative introduction and an impressively in-depth study of many significant, reputable, and successful voluntary organizations from the past. Drawing from particular materials to address issues not generally or sufficiently covered in the heretofore available literature on organized volunteers, Joining In addresses a compendium of relevant topics important to community, social, and cooperative studies. Very strongly recommended and instructive as a cultural anthropology textbook for its multitude of sources and citation of particular documents pertaining to previous studies of voluntary organizations of all categories and themes, Joining In is enhanced with fifty book lists helpful to researchers and a core addition to academic library reference collections.
