The Elgar Encyclopedia of Leadership provides us with 138 concise entries on leadership from classical to contemporary perspectives in management, psychology, sociology, and ethics by 50 engaged scholars. Such an impressive collection of the "the good, the bad, and the ugly" of leadership inspires further reading.
