Reviews

...refreshingly simple and direct. This book undoubtedly provides a persuasive overview of the history, basic theory, and practice of resolving conflicts. * s * The 'rules' that Dr. Burton lists are made especially valuable because of the unique qualities their author brings to his understanding of the process. A lifetime of involvement in some of the toughest conflict situations possible gave him pragmatic experience, which, coupled with his growing insight into the psychic 'needs' of all human beings, developed in him the wisdom to set forth these processes for others to follow. -- Mary E. Clark, Former Drucie French Cumbie Professor, Georg
