Book Reviews of Machiavelli on Modern Leadership: Why Machiavelli's Iron Rules Are As Timely And Important Today As Five Centuries Ago

Book Review: MUST Reading for Today's Political and Military Leaders!!
Summary: 5 Stars

Michael Ledeen's new work is inspirational and insightful. He masterfully transports Machiavelli's timeless lessons into a modern context. This book combines history, politics, religion, military science, economics, and the dynamics of human behavior in a powerful analysis of leadership. This book is actually a "fun" read, yet it will cause the reader to reflect often on Machiavelli's lessons for today. Ledeen's crisp and witty style makes this a book for the desktop rather than the bookshelf.....after you read it, you will find yourself analyizing the motives and policies of today's leaders. Most importantly, the reader should consider this book a necessary reference for watching the upcoming elections. All leaders will benefit from Ledeen's outstanding effort. This is a book you can give a friend or associate.........with some assurance that considerable spitited discussion will follow. History teachers, political scientists, military, political, and business leaders will be discussing this work soon.

One of the most outstanding books I've ever read!!!!
