It makes so much sense.As Michel Cantal-Dupart said in a workshop I attended, a city is like a human body - each part connected to the other parts and therefore affected. So Urban Alchemy proposes that healing one part of a city helps heal the rest. It just makes so much sense.And Dr. Fullilove writes so eloquently and accessibly, the book is a pleasure to read.I urge anyone who cares about cities small and large to read it and apply its lessons - if not to heal, then to maintain civic health. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Great book! *by M***N on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 15, 2016* Great book! The author gives an excellent parallel of school segregation for readers to understand segregation of communities. Immediately, I was able to identify the many divides in my city. She gives great examples on how to move your city forward and bridge the communities. As you're reading, I found myself cross-referencing a lot to understand more about mentioned landmark cases, movements, or other things or terms that were unfamiliar in order to comprehend the direction the author was taking me. The chapters are long, could have been split in two but overall, it's an excellent read and should be adopted in school curriculum in 9-12 and college level. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Addressing a knotty problem, one street at a time *by A***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 24, 2015* Dr. Fulilove, a psychiatrist, has focused her career on analyzing sick neighborhoods. As with all good doctors, she soon realized that no neighborhood thrives or fails in a vacuum. It is part of a city, a state, a nation and its connections to the larger world will profoundly affect it.Her book is readable, both as a study of how people live in real cities, and as a memoir of a life spent - and still being spent - on solving a knotty problem, one neighborhood at a time.If you despair of fixing your little piece of the world, I urge you to read this book for a fresh perspective. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/12807491-urban-alchemy-restoring-joy-in-americas-sorted-out-cities](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/12807491-urban-alchemy-restoring-joy-in-americas-sorted-out-cities) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-06-01*
