“I especially loved the chapters ‘When Emotion Powers, Thinking Guides’ and ‘Conflict Prone-Relationship’ – it’s as if I started learning about conflict resolution from the very beginning all over again, being introduced to the conflicts and their resolutions from totally new levels. The exercises that are offered there are simply magnificent. Thank you for that.”
