This book can be a bit dry at places, and admittedly, it was written quite a few years back. That said, it is still an interesting read that is applicable to our lives and society today. It was recommended to me by my brother who is highly interested in the subject of leadership, and he remarked that this book is essentially classic in some circles. I can see why. The information is very interesting.
