Mediation – Seven Fundamental Questions, John Wade Jan 2001

Mediation – Seven Fundamental Questions, John Wade

John Wade

In parts of many countries, mediation is a commonly used process for managing and resolving conflict. In many other places, mediation is virtually unknown in both practice and theory.
