Leading and leadership

the long version

"Leading and Leadership, an anthology of source readings, brings together writings on leadership by classic writers from ancient to modern times. It aims to foster reflection on leadership, rather than join the ranks of "how-to-do-it" manuals or of tracts offering generic advice divorced from particular circumstances. In Leading and Leadership poets, orators, and political leaders offer us food for thought, from Homer to Machiavelli and from Abraham Lincoln to Max Weber."--BOOK JACKET.
