The promise of mediation
This book presents a thoroughly revised and updated account of the transformative model of mediation and its practical application. It draws on a decade of work in theory development, training, practice, research, and assessment. The transformative model has gained increasing acceptance and is now used in diverse arenas such as workplace, community, family, organizational, and public policy conflicts.
This book significantly expands upon and refines the transformative model of mediation that Robert A. Baruch Bush and Joseph P. Folger first introduced in their earlier writings and research. It offers a more developed theoretical framework and practical applications based on a decade of further work.
The transformative model of mediation presented in this book is widely taught and discussed in conflict resolution programs and legal studies, making it a foundational text for students and practitioners in the field.
