John W. Burton Publishes Introductory Text
Professor John W. Burton's latest book, Conflict Resolution: Its Language and Processes, is being offered at a pre-publication discount by Scarecrow Press of Lanham, Maryland. This introductory text provides a solid understanding of the history, basic theory, and practice of conflict resolution for students in the field of conflict studies as well as for decision makers and policy-makers in industry, law, and government. Among the books written for scholars and practitioners on the theory of conflict resolution and the use of alternative methods in the suppression of conflict, this book addresses the special needs of the general reader. It provides, in easily understandable terms, definitions of the many new terms that are now in the standard lexicon of the rapidly developing field of Conflict Analysis and Resolution.
