United for health to improve urban food environments across five underserved communities
Examining coalition function and maturation in a real-world context reveals important lessons for scholars and practitioners committed to addressing nutrition-related health disparities in marginalized and historically underserved communities. Future work should investigate the sustainability of externally funded cross-sector coalitions after funding ceases
Rise of the Modern Hospital
Between 1870 and 1940, medicine was transformed, as countless studies have chronicled. The hospital was a key site in that transformation, shifting from a place of charitable care to a modern technological machine for all patients. Yet we still know surprisingly little about the hospital as a building, and how changes it underwent reflected and influenced the shifts in medicine occurring within it. Drawing on examples from the eastern and midwest…

Overview of
Research Summary The civil gang injunction (CGI) is an increasingly popular suppression strategy. Interviews with 416 youth in areas with and without a CGI suggest that suppression‐oriented injunctions may have little useful impact on gang social dynamics. CGIs may have promise as part of a comprehensive strategy that uses enhanced sanctions both to suppress crime and to move individual gang offenders toward alternatives (such as education, perso…

Does Working Together Prevent Crime? Social Capital, Neighborhoods, and Crime
This article addresses the theoretical background and controversies of social capital in relationship to urban crime. It posits that social capital is a key asset to improving crime prevention. When people and organizations are densely related, it creates high levels of bonding and bridging social capital. In terms of crime, social capital builds the trust necessary to sustain a healthy community. However, evidence suggests that in some cases soc…
Developing networks for community change
This article demonstrates how network analysis can be used to develop a better understanding of a community-based network and steps that might be taken to facilitate network development. The focal network in this study was organized by a local non-profit organization as part of their effort to effect community-level change. The activities of this network were guided by three steering committees, 23 members of which provided data regarding numerou…

Healthcare Architecture in an Era of Radical Transformation (review)
In this well-illustrated, large-format book, architect Stephen Verderber and health-systems management expert David J. Fine chronicle the evolution of health-care facilities since 1965. They focus on this period for three reasons. First, they want to update John Thompson and Grace Golden's The Hospital: A Social and Architectural History (1975), which covers hospital architecture from the ancient world to the 1960s. Second, "[the middle sixties] …
