   What is a book jewel? A sometimes-overlooked book with remarkable insight and potential significance. Each month, we share near-daily, or as often as possible, reviews of the monthly book jewel - short, succinct reviews that can be read in 1-2 minutes with links to the reviewer by reviewers whose words are worthy of being heard and whose opinions are worthy of being considered. Sometimes a couple of minutes contains more impressive thought than ten times that many. We will let you decide that. This month's book jewel is  Road Map to Power  by Syed and Darius Husain .

Originally, the title was longer: hard to file, hard to look up, and clear but at what cost. Then, we played with making a form of the title into a subtitle, and that worked. Now, though, we really needed a title. Bliss came up very quickly, but what a...
