Peace
In his large and ambitious project, Noll weaves many strands of academic thinking about human conflict into an integrated view of why people fight, how they fight, what the fight over-and how they can instead make peace, whether in the courtroom or beyond. Joining ancient philosophical views with the most modern revelations of the neurosciences, Peacemaking engages the nature of humanity and the conflicts it faces from a broadly multidisciplinary approach. The complexity of conflict is unraveled as each major perspective is analyzed and integrated into a larger scheme.

Imagine being an effective peacemaker in a maelstrom of hatred, escalated feelings. Imagine being able to understand the basis for human conflict and to see its predictability. Imagine being empathic, centered, and balanced even as the waves of anger and emotion crash around you. These skills are achievable, but only with a deep and broad knowledge of human conflict.

Peacemaking is foundational in that it does not talk much of technique, but rather of the deeper whys of conflict and conflict resolution. To plumb these whys, Peacemaking takes on such diverse subjects as philosophy and conflict, religion and conflict, conflict resolution systems, game theory, conflict behaviors, apology and forgiveness, and ethics to build a framework of understanding and knowledge for those interested in pursuing peacemaking.
