More Praise for The Handbook of Conflict Resolution
Professor Morton Deutsch is one of the greatest contributors of the twenty-first century to the important and crucial field of conflict resolution. His contributions have been in theory and practice, in attracting outstanding people to work with him, in stimulating superb people to carry on in their own paths. The net effect is a truly major contribution to this field, and it is summed up beautifully in this revised and enlarged edition. Highly informative, profoundly insightful, and, indeed, a definitive account of conflict resolution.
David A. Hamburg, president emeritus, Carnegie Corporation of New York; DeWitt Wallace Distinguished Scholar; and cochair, Social Medicine and Public Policy Programs, Department of Psychiatry, New York Presbyterian Hospital and Cornell University Medical College
This volume is an extraordinary resource, a much-needed comprehensive handbook on conflict resolution.
Arthur E. Levine, president emeritus, Teachers College, Columbia University; president, Woodrow Wilson National Fellowship Foundation
This Handbook should be on the reading list of every course in peace and conflict studies and especially on the lists used in teacher preparation courses in peace education, a field that seeks to cultivate understanding of constructive ways of confronting violence, alternatives to force and lethal conflict for the pursuit of social purposes.
Betty Reardon, founding director emeritus, Peace Education Center, Teachers College, Columbia University
In the past, I have been saying to all of my students at Kyushu University and the participants in my mediation trainings, If you are serious about mediation, read The Handbook of Conflict Resolution . Now seeing the updated and enlarged edition, I would say, Read it, for it will help you become a thoughtful and insightful mediator.

PREFACE
The field of conflict resolution continues to develop rapidly. As a consequence, we have updated and revised the second edition of this Handbook. Almost all of the chapters in the second edition have been updated; in some, the revisions have been extensive, and in others, only minor changes seemed necessary. Also, we have added new chapters on topics that were not covered or needed more coverage than they received in the first two editions. Given the scope of growth in the field, we have expanded the book considerably. And in order to make this expansion more cost effective for the readership, we have developed a new online section of the book.
