The book will indispensable for both students and teachers of leadership alike. An excellent contribution highly recommended."

John Hassard, Professor of Organizational Analysis, Alliance Manchester Business School, The University of Manchester, UK

"Despite the millions of words written and spoken about leadership, still we see chronic problems with the ways in which organizations, firms and nations are led. Paul Evans' book provides a welcome critique of the simplicity and inadequacy of so much of the leadership canon while also offering wise practical guidance. An indispensable introduction to a topic of enduring importance."
