Based on her own activism in the Gandhi International Institute of Peace and Mediators Beyond Borders this book applied her Harvard Law School Negotiation Principles of Mediation to 9/11, Kent State University killings, Croatia-Bosnia, Cambodia, Immigration and orphan issues and todays Racial, Ethnic and Socioeconomic Class injustices. PTSD and moral guilt in soldiers is addressed through her own clinical work and review of scientific journals.
