“In applying an innovative methodology to investigate a hitherto underexplored context, the book offers a number of fascinating insights into the leadership experiences of women from several parts of Asia, highlighting the importance of the intersection of cultural context and gender norms for understanding leadership. … The book may therefore serve as an inspiration for further exploration of the entanglements of gender, culture and leadership.” (Maria Adamson, Work, employment and society, Vol. 30 (2), May, 2016)"This book is indispensable not only for Asian women but for anyone seeking to lead a diverse team. By examining both the constraints and strengths of women embedded in a profoundly collaborative tradition, Jane Horan shows why authentic transformation in a time of demographic change must always be rooted in an understanding of culture." - Sally Helgesen, Author, The Female Vision, The Web of Inclusion, The Female Advantage, Thriving in 24/7

"A must read for policy-makers, businesses, educators and women who are interested in ensuring women in Asia achieve their full potential in the workplace and beyond." - Su-Mei Thompson, CEO, The Women's Foundation

"An eye-opening look into the Asia-specific context that companies and managers will want to be fluent in as they work to gender balance their organisations." - Avivah Wittenberg-Cox, CEO, 20-first

"A thoughtful and thought-provoking examination of bias and leadership. This is a timely book and Jane has an extraordinary ability to reflect and learn through her own research in order to share authentic insights with the reader." - Sung Hae Kim, Ed.D.

"Jane Horan presents a vivid glimpse of the lives and careers of female leaders in Asia. Through interviews with four women, she uncovered the 'poignant childhood events, political unrest, incurable disease, and tragedies' that made these women leaders different from their counterparts in other places in the world. The detailed descriptions make reading feel like listening to Jane telling the stories. Anyone who is interested in female leadership in Asia should listen to Jane's stories." - Pingping Fu, Associate Professor, The Chinese University of Hong Kong

"Jane Horan has captured the essence of 21st century leadership in her identification of the themes of spirit, authenticity, and relational networks as essential for success. How Asian Women Lead provides needed cross-cultural and feminine perspectives on what leaders - male and female; Asian or other - need to understand to be effective in the current and future milieu." - Kathy D. Geller, Assistant Clinical Professor, Doctoral Program in Educational Leadership and Management, Drexel University, USA

"How Asian Women Lead isn't your regular business book with charts, templates, checklists and 'how tos' . . . It weaves together academic insights from sociology, cultural and gender studies with perspectives culled from ethnographic interviews conducted by the author . . . Through embedding key lessons in the form of vivid and memorable stories, the book conveyed a heightened realism to the professional and personal obstacles faced by [women leaders in Asia]." - Cooler Insights

"Fascinating. Sierra Leone s war has been extensively documented by journalists, historians, political scientists, and anthropologists. Quite apart from its theoretical intervention into strategic military studies, Magic and Warfare is a valuable record of one of the least understood parts of this war. Wlodarczyk s careful reading of the existing literature, coupled with her own ethnographic work among the war s participants, lend credibility to her claim that understanding social and historical contexts goes a long way toward rendering intelligible the seemingly inexplicable practices of many belligerents in today s wars." - International Journal of African Historical Studies

"Wlodarczyk has built on the by-now considerable body of work on the importance of belief systems in African politics to offer a systematic analysis of the role of magic in the Sierra Leone conflict. Making good use of the extensive evidence gathered by the trials on war crimes and her own field research, she provides a detailed account of the origins, organization and behaviour of the Kamajor militias that formed the core of the so-called Civil Defence Forces, which fought the rebel Revolutionary United Front. This book is a perceptive analysis of the nature of violence in contemporary Africa, which has relevance well beyond the continent. And it reinforces the argument that it is impossible plausibly to interpret political events in settings different from ours without an understanding of the cultural context within which they take place." - Patrick Chabal, International Affairs

"Researchers who specialize in military studies are a pretty hard-headed bunch, unlikely to spend much time thinking about the worlds of spirits. If they read this book, as they should, theymay start to do otherwise. Wlodarczyck s achievement is to show the relevance of spiritual matters for military and political affairs in many parts of the world, concentrating on Sierra Leone. I hope this book will alert many people to an aspect of warfare that is likely to grow in importance." - Stephen Ellis, Desmond Tutu Professor in the Faculty of Social Sciences, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam

"Nathalie Wlodarczyk has done a stunning job bringing the immensely complicated, sensitive and intriguing subject of magic to the academic field. From a sound theoretical base, this book brings empirical research and meticulous insight into Sierra Leone s war and its Kamajor fighters. Magic and Warfare combines a fascinating intellectual adventure with an engaging clarity that steers the reader to a greater understanding not only of the Kamajors and the war, but of the nature of belief and its relationship with action." - Zoe Marriage, Senior Lecturer in Development Studies, School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London
