The textbook covers the material in excruciating detail. The problem is that it does so with a small font, light print and no sidebars whatsoever. Make sure that you have a fresh highlighter too as you are going to need it!
If I had to describe the textbook in one word it would be: clinical
It covers the material, but by the time you are finished with a chapter, you breathe a sigh of relieve.
By Ron Brooks
This book summarizes from a very academic standpoint various theories and perspectives on leadership. It is both descriptive and prescriptive in how leaders can improve their capabilities. This book is best for someone who is seeking a more intellectual orientation on leadership.
