About this book

More than ever before, mediation has become an integral part of resolving disputes in our increasingly contentious society. While labor, family, and divorce conflicts made up the major part of mediation practice just a decade ago, the field has exploded in recent years to include applications in a broad - and still growing - range of commercial, interpersonal, public, and international arenas. Throughout this period of dynamic growth, the first edition of The Mediation Process, originally published in 1986, has led the way as the best resource in the field for a generation of practitioners and trainers, students in degree programs, and professionals in corporate, legal, health care, education, and governmental arenas. This long-awaited new edition has been revised and expanded to provide not only an updated bibliographical resources section to facilitate further research but also comprehensive coverage of the most contemporary issues in mediation practice, including applications in such important new areas as commercial, community, cross-cultural, court-based, environmental, public policy, and international mediation; five variations of the mediator role - the social network, benevolent, administrative/managerial, vested interest, and independent mediators - that demonstrate the universality of the mediation process and forms of assistance provided to parties in disputes across cultures; and recent efforts to further good practice in mediation, including the development of ethics code; the training, qualification, and certification of mediators; and the development of university and professional school courses in mediation.

Faulkner and psychology

Faulkner and Yoknapatawpha

Characteristically, William Faulkner minimized his familiarity with the theories of psychology that were current during the years of his apprenticeship as a writer, especially those of Freud. Yet, Faulkner's works prove to be a trove for psychological study. These original papers from the annual Faulkner and Yoknapatawpha Conference, held in 1991 at the University of Mississippi, vary widely in their approaches to recent psychological speculation about Faulkner's texts. In recent years psychological analysis of literature has shifted largely from investigation of a writer's life to a focus on the work itself. Whether applying the theories of Freud and Lacan, drawing upon theoretical work in women's studies and men's studies, or emphasizing the rigid determinacy of psychological pressure, the essays included in this collection show Faulkner's works to be unquestionably rich in psychological materials.

Work it out

Sandra Krebs Hirsh with Jane A.G. Kise

Work It Out uncovers the mysteries of how best to work together.

Especially valuable for any manager responsible for helping individuals and groups work together - and who must deal with the fallout when they don't - Work It Out will help you identify the strengths of employees, recognize areas of potential conflict, and bridge the gap when personality differences arise.

Psychology

Jeffrey S. Nevid

Psychology: Concepts and Applications has been developed based upon the author's research on how students best learn from a textbook. It presents a concept-based modular organization focused on four key objectives: to enhance learning, engage student interest, sharpen critical thinking skills, and incorporate technology as a tool for learning. The text provides a broad perspective on psychology that covers the history, methods of research, major theories, and research findings of the discipline, as well as applications of the knowledge gained from contemporary research to the problems and challenges we face in today's world. - Preface.
