A Little About The Book This book concerns a man's search to find meaning and purpose in his life. George is an academic working mainly in the areas of philosophy and social science also a writer not only of academic items but poetry and meditations he has composed under the name of Chong Tzu. Very few people know Chong Tzu is actually him. George has known loss particularly of his mother and father yet, often has a sense of their being close to him, he has known hurt and betrayal and has had been in conflict with the judicial system in the past. Through a series of events in which many difficult issues are raised e.g. child abuse, the nature of justice, the meaning of life and the reality of the life to come he approaches his goal and purpose as he finds real acceptance for being the person he is just as he is. George finds himself to be the possessor of more gifts than he realized; his journey is a hard one and he learns a lot on the way. George is prepared to enter into the new life that is his while acquiring a very real understanding of the life to come and the oneness of all creation. George Coombs

A theory that attempts to bring order to the chaotic variety of conflict usually begins by distinguishing types of conflict and formulating general explanatory principles that relate and integrate them. In contrast to traditional methods, this book describes and explores the structural aspects of different types of conflicts, and discusses the important implications involved for both choosing and achieving methods for resolving conflict. Two important facets of conflict structure are recognized: the individuals involved and the behavioral principles that govern them; and the existence of options and their structural relation. This monograph will be of interest to researchers and practitioners of conflict resolution, such as mediators, lawyers, diplomats, counselors and psychologists, and students in experimental and social psychology, labor relations, poilitical science and law.
