<br/><br/> Drawing extensively on examples throughout history the book's premise is that leadership is a moral concept: "bad leadership implies no leadership". Argues that leadership is a still expanding field of study, but that it is about the alleviation of suffering "the eschewing of misery" and as such is what Thomas Jefferson meant by "...life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness".
