Getting to Peace: Transforming Conflict at Home, at Work, and in the World

We've been taught that war is human nature, & that there is little that we as individuals can do about it. Here is a book which turns the conventional wisdom upside down & shows why & how peace is now within our grasp. Based on two decades of research & new anthropological evidence, the book revisits our past & radically reframes old perceptions of human conflict. Presents a powerful new approach for dealing with human differences. Ury calls it the Third Side. In every dispute there are not just two sides, but an untapped third side that can transform destructive conflicts into cooperation. Using real-life examples from the family, the school, the workplace, & the world, he gives ten practical ways we can all tap the power of the third side.
