Reviews

`A wise person once said, `Writing about music is like dancing about architecture.' The editors of Leadership in Spaces and Places have choreographed a masterpiece. They have assembled a superb collection of scholarship that sheds light on the relationship between humans and their environments, specifically in regard to the socio-materiality between leadership and space. The contributors to this twelve-chapter volume include scholars who are on the cutting edge of thinking about the embodiment of leadership, specifically as it applies to the constructed environment. . . The bibliographies alone are superb resources for anyone interested in this area of scholarship.' -- Leadership and the Humanities
