Fractured Communities by Stacia Ryder
Presents a set of crucial case studies analysing the differential risk perceptions, socio-environmental impacts, and mobilization of citizen protest (or quiescence) surrounding unconventional energy development and hydraulic fracking. Fractured Communities reveals how this contested terrain is expanding, pushing the issue of fracking into the mainstream of the American political arena.

Fractured Communities is required reading for those interested in the impacts of energy development on the environment and communities." - Richard York (director and professor of environmental studies, University of Oregon) "Weekly Book List, April 20, 2018" by Nina Ayoub (Chronicle of Higher Education) "Fractured Communities reveals how this contested terrain is expanding, pushing the issue of fracking into the mainstream of the American political arena."
