Critical Acclaim
‘In this brilliant and elegant book, Benjamin Redekop critiques the prevailing American model of what he terms “unsustainable leadership,” and argues for a new understanding, arising from the ideas and insights of pioneering women like Rachel Carson and Marjory Stoneman Douglas, that puts sustainability and respect for the natural world at the center of the leader’s work.’
