1.0 out of 5 stars
Poorly written with few redeeming qualities., November 5, 1999
This review is from: Finding Common Ground: A Field Guide to Mediation (Paperback)
I actually read this book cover to cover, I'm still not sure how. Phillips work reads like one long rambling run-on never getting to a point. The entire book could be summed up by the following: "Mediation is good, litigation is bad" and "Mediators are great." If you read these statements you can throw the book away. It is a steady repetition of these themes told through less than interesting cases and accounts. This book oversimplifies the subject and has little in the way of concrete, applicable information.

This review is from: Finding Common Ground: A Field Guide to Mediation (Paperback)
I found this book to be an excellent guide to the topic of mediation. Concise, and very well written. Should be required reading for anyone looking into alternative dispute resolution methods.
