Reviews / Votes
Working through Conflict provides an excellent and broad overview of the scholarship on conflict across a range of contexts. It also does a great job of explaining enduring insights about conflict while also discussing emerging trends, such as new communication technologies and conflict. Overall, it serves as an excellent introduction to the conflict literature.- John P Caughlin, University of Illinois, USA
The eighth edition of Working Through Conflict is clearly the most comprehensive, broad-based text on communication and conflict. With its process focus, new material on media and conflict, updated research, and excellent case studies, it is the textbook that gives readers a foundation for navigating conflict productively and successfully.
-Linda L. Putnam, University of California, Santa Barbara, USA
