-William Ury, co-author Getting to Yes, author The Third Side
"An important contribution about not just what we do but who we are as mediators. The authors reexamine often overlooked first premises. A must read for any self-reflective peacemaker."
-Eric D. Green, Law professor, co-founder, Endispute, Inc. and Resolutions, LLC

-Gary Friedman, co-founder and director of the Center for Mediation in Law
"This book is a must-read for both masters and novices in the field. Without ignoring the important issues of competency and credentialing, this book forces us to try to understand what we do at a level that surveys and questionnaires cannot uncover. It is a gem that will gleam for many years to come."
-Homer La Rue, arbitrator, mediator, law professor

-Susan Hackley, managing director, Program on Negotiation at
Harvard Law School
"This rich collection of essays offers an array of perspectives on the mediator's dynamic effect on the parties and their conflict. It will provoke reflection and provide insight for even the most experienced mediators about who we are, what we do, and why it matters."
-Marjorie Aaron, mediator and law professor
