Rezensionen

"An unusually rich resource for understanding the challenges of leadership. ... The primary contribution of Perry's book to leadership studies is founded on his insight that the fiction of C.S. Lewis has a lot to say about leadership. ... Perry offers a fresh and illuminating contribution to the study of leadership. ... Perry's book does a great deed in bringing the fiction of C.S. Lewis into leadership studies and provides a promising start towards understanding the importance of Lewis's contribution." (Joseph J. McInerney, Journal of Inklings Studies, Vol. 11 (1), April, 2021)
