...members, the capacity to devise and implement strategies that allow them to advance toward their goals, and the agility to shift course when doing so seems necessary. In an authoritarian regime or in a corporation that is organized hierarchically, leaders can often proceed quite quickly and with relatively little regard for the beliefs and feelings of others in their organization. On occasion, such a peremptory approach is even essential. In the United States today, leadership of colleges and universities is an entirely different affair.

Their only attempt at civil protest—the boycott of Arla Foods, the Danish-Swedish dairy giant—has been a conflation of all things Danish, as Arla takes the heat for the actions of an independent journal. In this regard, the fallout from the publication of the cartoons has been deplorable and unwarranted. It is simply hypocritical for these Muslim nations to expect European nations to respect their religious beliefs and simultaneously punish those nations for exercising their most central freedom of speech. Muslim newspapers routinely criticize and offend Jews...
...this regard, Burstein, as a discoverer of a different, unseen Jefferson, has produced a truly original and necessary work that will guide future research. The author skillfully takes a figure known to most only from a distance as a brilliant revolutionary and humanizes him, portraying Jefferson as a loving grandfather, an inspired educator, and an old man perhaps unusually aware of and at peace with his impending death...
