Everybody knows what it takes to be a good leader; what all too few seem to know is why there are so few takers. This is why the recycling of the same old clichés in the mountains of books on leadership has failed to stem the rising tide of the leadership crisis. The twenty-five essays in André van Heerden's new book, Is Leadership History?, provide answers to this deeper question of why so few people are prepared to actually do what leadership plainly requires. The richly informed insights in the book demonstrate the need to cultivate once more vision, virtue, and vigilance in a civilisation facing an existential crisis. By considering leadership in relation to history, classic literature, science, psychology, neuroscience, philosophy, logic, sex, virtue, and many other subjects, the author emphasises that real education as opposed to skills-training is the only way to once again produce leaders in our troubled world.
