Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

The premise of this follow-up to Leadership and Self-Deception is simple: people whose hearts are at peace do not wage war, whether they're heads of state or members of a family. In this semi-fictional narrative ("inspired by actual events") illustrating the principles of achieving peace, the setting is a two-day parent workshop at an Arizona-based wilderness camp for out-of-control teenagers, but the storyline is a mere setting for an instruction manual. Workshop facilitators Yusuf al-Falah, a Palestinian Arab whose father was killed by Israelis in 1948, and Avi Rozen, an Israeli Jew whose father died in the Yom Kippur War, use examples from their domestic lives and the history of their region to illustrate situations in which the normal and necessary routines of daily life can become fodder for conflict. Readers observe this through the eyes of one participant, a father whose business is in nearly as much trouble as his teenage son. The usefulness of the information conveyed here on how conflicts take root, spread and can be resolved more than compensates for the pedestrian writing.

Jo Ellen Green Kaiser, Senior Editor, Tikkun Magazine

"Rarely have I read anything that held my attention in the way this book did ... To find that kind of reading experience in the context of a book that also covers such disparate topics as parenting, managing employees, middle-east peace, and self-actualization is truly astonishing." --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars Terrific insight, Jun 29 2009

By	Collin C. Carbno (Regina, Saskatchewan Canada) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

In a world filled with conflict this is huge step in the right direction. The ideas are presented nicely in story form but with enough direct presentation that they are clearly understandable. Comes highly recommended.

When we open any communication, we soon find that there are many different viewpoints, many different conceptions of what is true, various requests, and various ideas of what should be done. Faced with any kind of request, communication, issue, or even just a different viewpoint all of us come to a moment when we have to make a choice on how to respond. Arbinger research shows that in that decision moment we chose either to see the other parties as people(heart-of-peace) or as objects (heart-of-war). The natural response when the thinking of others is contrary to ours is to make a choice that sees or treats the others as objects. Treating them as objects allows us not to listen, not to discuss, not to address the issues, and allows us to deny requests. Moreover, subconsciously we then need to justify our actions, and so we enter into a cycle of self-deception. Our self-deception always puts us in a box that limits our behavior and that provokes further conflict. Indeed, how often has any of us have found ourselves in a conflict with a party that thinks itself wrong? Likely none.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beyond any reason there is a true heart, April 23 2009

By	David Audet - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I've been reading lots of books regarding psychology, philosophy and business leadership. Looking backwards I saw leadership as being ahead of others, the first in a row, the leader. I wanted to be beyond others. But why was it so? In reality i'm just like anybody and I want recognition from others. I want to bond with them. Reading this book made me realize that I was acting and thinking contradictory to my inner feelings. I was repulsing others. My heart was at war. Now I think differently. This book got into my heart. You just can't deny the truth without being afflicted. Now I wish you strenght and peace to you all. I'm with you.
