The Science of Settlement: Ideas for Negotiators
Most books on negotiation theory are wrong! Why? Because they assume that human beings are rational negotiators. But in fact, there are dozens of reasons built into our psyche why we don’t behave rationally at the negotiating table. This book lucidly and humorously explains these psychological reasons – and even better, shows you how to take advantage of them in order to obtain more successful settlements. Armed with this book, you will break out of your negotiating rut, understand what you (and others) do wrong, and focus on identifying how the other side is operating so you can use it to your advantage. "His summaries of complex psychological and economic principles are superb. His conversational prose and excellent use of examples make the science memorable and easy to apply. This book is a must-read for any lawyer or mediator.” – Robert A. Creo, co-founder, International Academy of Mediators.
