<p>"Hyperlocal Organizing deftly walks readers through moment-by-moment analyses of material and human challenges in disaster recovery as neighbors, families, and volunteers first help and emergent groups form into local institutions. Rich examples and quotes from interviews and transcripts abound. Readers experience the boat flotillas that rescued workers stranded during 9-11, local restaurants and faith-based relief efforts that offered food and connection, and continuing struggles in New Orleans from Katrina and recurring storms. Details from the Hurricane Sandy long-term case study offer insights into communication management, social resilience, and democratic governance with transferrable applications to ever-emerging disruptions."</p>
