Neither art nor science : selected Canadian military leadership profiles / edited by Colonel Bernd Horn and Craig L. Mantle.: D2-203/2-2007E-PDF ; D2-203/2-2007E
"Command and leadership are very personal endeavours. Each leader approaches them differently, with remarkably different results. Neither Art, Nor Science – Selected Canadian Military Leadership Profiles examines the military careers of some of Canada's most competent, highly decorated and controversial personalities, and seeks to uncover the reasons behind their successes and failures in the field. Stretching from the First World War to the struggle in the Balkans in the 1990s, this volume offers profound insight into several of the leadership challenges that marked twentieth-century conflict and clearly reveals how Canadian leaders dealt with them. Sometimes they were successful, other times they were not. Neither Art, Nor Science is a probing and detailed examination of a handful of individuals who, from now on, can never again be seen in the same light."
