 Too complex and expensive Sep 25, 2004
By Zoran Neftik
I admit that this Encyclopedia is a formidable undertaking and has some strong points. There is a lot of good information in this book. There is also some not-so-good information too. Most importantly, what information there is does not flow together very well. In my opinion, it's not worth the $570 I forked out to buy it.
Your money would be better spent buying 4 or 5 solid handbook/textbook-type books that would, in total save you a couple of hunderd bucks.
For example, a more concise and cohesive book that I'd recommend is "Bass & Stogdill's Handbook of Leadership" by Bernard Bass (for $90 it's almost a giveaway!).
Gary Yukl's "Leadership" is also excellent but less broad ($110).
"The nature of leadership" by John Antonakis is also valuable (and just under $50).
Peter Northouse's "Leadership" is also pretty good (only $43).
Lastly, I'd recommend Robert Houses' "Culture, Leadership, and Organizations : The GLOBE Study of 62 Societies" (at $125 it's a steal).
All these books would cost less than the Encyclopedia and would give you more precise and better-packaged information.

 Good reference book if you can afford it Apr 03, 2005
By A reader
I suppose that this encyclopedia is mostly for libraries given it hefty price. It is very complete and has contributions from many top scholars (though many other top scholars are missing). If you can afford it buy it. If not, I concur with the previous reviewer about buying 5 or 6 good value for money mini-handbooks.
