NIACR Announces the Winner of its 2005 Book Award

This year's NIACR book award winner beats out the competition.

(PRWEB) October 17, 2005 -- Today the National Institute for Advanced Conflict Resolution announced the winner of its 2005 book award. This award is given annually by the Institute to a book published in the United States that shows the best promise of promoting and contributing to the field of conflict resolution. The winner was selected from a field of outstanding entries.

This year's winner is "The Handbook of Dispute Resolution," a dispute resolution practitioner's guide edited by Michael L Moffitt and Robert C. Bordone. Published as part of a special series with The Program on Negotiation at Harvard Law School, The Handbook of Dispute Resolution has synthesized more than thirty years of research into 31 chapters, each of which examines a unique aspect of conflict resolution. With its wealth of practitioner information, the handbook promises to become a mainstay in the field of conflict resolution for years to come. Editor Michael L. Moffitt is an Associate Professor and the Associate Director of the Appropriate Dispute Resolution Program at the University of Oregon School of Law. Editor Robert C. Bordone is the Thaddeus R. Beal Lecturer on Law at Harvard Law School and the Deputy Director of the Harvard Negotiation Research Project at Harvard Law School.

The National Institute for Advanced Conflict Resolution (NIACR) was founded for the purpose of advancing the field of conflict resolution in the United States, and promoting a greater understanding of the role of mediation in resolving disputes. NIACR maintains a website at http://www.niacr.org, where it provides online resources for practicing mediators as well as information to the general public about issues pertaining to mediation and conflict resolution.
