Social psychologists and criminologists agree that if a window in a building is broken and left unrepaired, soon thereafter the rest of the windows will be broken—and the perception will build that crime in that neighborhood is out of control.

Michael Levine—called by USA Today “one of America’s wisest media experts”—sheds light on the subtle yet significant signs of societal decay, using personal anecdotes and broader cultural examples to illustrate a national trend of decline and loss, and his aim is to spark a conversation about the decline in service standards, cultural pride, and overall societal health. BROKEN WINDOWS, BROKEN NATION is a timely and necessary exploration of America's precipitous decline, and by combining insights from a lifetime of careful observation and success, academic analysis, and practical solutions, Levine points a spotlight on the problems and offers a blueprint to reverse these troubling trends.
