'Carrie Menkel-Meadow is a prolific and perceptive scholar in the conflict resolution field. This collection of her ADR writings makes a fitting companion to her earlier volume on mediation.' Professor Frank E.A. Sander, Harvard University, USA 'In this collection of stimulating essays, Carrie Menkel-Meadow vividly demonstrates a remarkable power of synthesis and an ability to explore negotiation and dispute resolution as a legal academic who is at once a clinician, a feminist, and a scholar with a broad range [of] interdisciplinary knowledge.' Professor Robert H. Mnookin, Harvard Law School, USAMore details
