Embarking from a model of social capital hinging upon four social structures-work, family, social networks, and voluntary associations-Brian Jones empirically examines the widespread claims that American society is becoming less sociable, trusting, and cooperative.

This rigorous, empirically driven analysis reveals how American society both confirms and repudiates fears about decreased cooperation given different cases and parameters.
