Summary
This volume brings together diverse conceptualizations of leadership from such disciplines as political science, anthropology and psychology. Much of the recent work on leadership, as reflected in this collection, consists of clarification of earlier concepts and discards inadequate ones. These essays are based on the premise that leadership is interpersonal, that leaders cannot be seen in isolation from followers, that leadership is largely a teaching process, that creative leadership is closely related to conflict and crisis, and that transforming leadership carries grave moral implications. Part I examines how particular fields consider leadership issues. Part II examines four different responses to leadership issues. ISBN 0-13-527671-3 (pbk) : $16.95.
