What books about community building would you recommend?

I have a book I haven't read yet that I think @csallen recommended called "Buzzing Communities"

Swarmwise by Rick Falkvinge
Peers Inc, by Robin Chase

Just wanted to say thanks for posting this. I got excited and ordered a copy of Get Together.

I have got “Startup Communities: Building an Entrepreneurial Ecosystem in Your City” by Brad Feld (Co-Founder of TechStars) on my reading list this month. Got recommendation from a friend, let’s see 😉

I'm reading Building Online Learning Communities by Rena M. Palloff and Keith Pratt now. It's a bit academic and dated but still quite practical and with a lot of examples which I found useful

Check out our collection - https://www.communitystash.com/books/

Have you read all of them @rosiesherry now?

It's an old post so I am sure you have build opinion about these books. I have read Peter Block and this one also looks decent but as I was going through the review of Priya Parker's Art of Gathering, people were mostly recommending this book for those who want to organise dinner parties and events. So just wanted to ask, what are your opinion about these books.

Also what books would you recommend on community building for someone who is about to start an online community?

Get hold of Tribes by Seth Godin.

The Art Of Community - Charles Vogl
Governing the Commons - Elinor Ostrom

which one of these was your favourite?
