Recenzje

'The strength of Shapira's extensive and comprehensive text, is the innovative combination of various forms of resources … The result is a substantive contribution to the profession of mediation … Shapira successfully reaches the intended goal of providing tools for guiding mediators. These tools, at the very least, can begin to guide mediators no matter their location and context and indeed 'fill up lacunas' of ethical guidance in mediation practice.' Saran Fina Sidime, African Journal on Conflict Resolution
