The hardest part is deciding what NOT to include… We want to give readers some clue about the many types of mediation practices out there now, and to incorporate good ideas from various models and experiments.

Keeping in mind that many of our readers are

1) students / trainees
2) professionals who mediate informally as part of their job, or have been asked to handle a particular dispute
3) mediators who are looking for useful frameworks and any practical ideas they can glean.

What are topics / approaches / ideas that you recommend including in this new edition?
