although interesting, the context and examples are not specific enough for our course - even though there are 'transferable' concepts, students may get confused on this occasion!

Effective presentation of political and social leadership concepts
I am using this book to supplement my teaching in LED 411 and will decide on adoption of it for the Fall 2010 semester. It will be listed as a recommended text on the syllabus for the Spring 2010 semester.
