The 5th Village

The 5th village is a sequel to the bestselling work, Vanishing Village, which, as things turn out, did not vanish. Rather, the village moved into a new version powered by wealth and global influence. The book deals with issues shared by local and global communities, issues such as how to deal with crazies, drug abuse, declining resources, and competing visions of sexual behavior. The book is an absorbing read of a community in transition.
