Living with people who differ—racially, ethnically, religiously, or economically—is the most urgent challenge facing civil society today. In Together Richard Sennett explores how people can cooperate online, on street corners, in schools, at work, and in local politics. He traces the evolution of cooperative rituals from medieval times to today. The author warns that we must learn the craft of cooperation if we are to make our complex society prosper, yet he reassures us that we can do this, for the capacity for cooperation is embedded in human nature.
