For someone how prefers non-fiction over fiction, I quite enjoyed this book and found Tolkien's talent for creating a vivid picture enjoyable.
It's probably been 20 years since I've read it. ]]>
The political lessons that can be learned from this book are staggering, but beware, this book is depressing. ]]>
I learned a ton from this book, but it's one of the more difficult to grasp books I've read because Madsen takes everything from a philosophical approach and is constantly quoting the thinkers of the world.
It also depicts the depth of how Joseph Smith thought about the eternities, and quotes him frequently.

Agreed. Consumers should read it. Smarter buyers would = lower prices in my opinion. ]]>

This is one of the better management books I've read because it makes you think twice about what you have control over and what you can do about it.
