Peace and Conflict Studies by David P Barash
New edition of this popular introduction to peace and conflict studies.
"David Barash and Charles Webel have intentionally minimized the use of technical language in this textThey have, as a result, produced an accessible work that deals with complex issues with a simplicity and clarity that is nevertheless profound. Ably surveying the terrain, the book is steeped in history and conversant with the current global political scene, including issues of natural resources, the economy and climate change." -- Joshua Habimana Times Higher Education 20090917
