Reviews

A timely book that captures today's turbulent political environment surrounding education. Future school leaders committed to helping all P-12 students become successful must be effective political actors. This volume provides specific guidance on managing the multifaceted political dimensions of school leadership today. --James Cibulka, President, Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation This is a well-conceived book that clearly explicates leadership practice to the ISLLC standards, as well as describes the political realities confronting public school leaders. The editor and chapter authors have done a fine job. This book should become standard fare in leadership preparation programs. --Catherine A. Lugg, Professor of Education, Rutgers University
