Recommendation
The uses and abuses of power have long fascinated humanity. Power struggles are a staple of the daily news and of countless novels, films and television shows. But as social scientists Julie Battilana and Tiziana Casciaro point out, people harbor many misconceptions about the nature of power and how to attain it. In this thought-provoking account, the authors argue that power accrues to whoever controls access to the resources that a society values.
