The Anatomy of Peace .. How to achive peace!

I thought this book was well written and very concise. I think everyone should read this and then maybe we will all have a different outlook and attitude. We so often look at other people with our own insecurities and war like attitudes. We need to look at them with an attitude of wanting peace and not war. Imagine what our world would be like if everyone wanted peace and not war!

Simplistic, But Worth a Read

Anatomy of Peace is sort of a prequel to Leadership and Self-Deception. If you loved Leadership, you'll love this one, too. If you are choosing between the two, I'd skip Leadership and start here. Anatomy picks up where Leadership leaves off, and is in some sense more advanced, but the concept(s) in these books are pretty simple and you might as well start here.

In reading both of these books, I felt caught between two feelings. On the one hand, I felt like there is a lot of truth in what the authors are trying to convey, and that I could gain quite a bit by adopting some of their attitudes towards others. On the other hand, the way they delivered their message had a paternalistic, absolutist feeling to it that made me feel like Big Brother was writing to me. The books seems bent on convincing, rather than discussing, and the manner in which the material is presented is quite like propaganda.

This is a short book, and easy enough to read. But, if you are interested in this topic, you could do better. I recommend instead: Mistakes Were Made (But Not by Me): Why We Justify Foolish Beliefs, Bad Decisions, and Hurtful Acts by Carol Tavris and Elliot Aronson. Mistakes Were Made is a much more direct and balanced look at the same topic, and I highly recommend it.

Book

I attended a seminar and needed to read this prior. This is an excellent book that teaches you how to interact with people- especially your own family. Cleverly written to provide a background story while still teaching principles of humanity. Would highly recommend to the person who is looking for a little more parental guidance on raising teenagers.

Helpful !

Very good book with good insight on the importance of having a peaceful heart starting with yourself. Highly recommended.

Arbinger's materials educate people about the problem of self-deception, and Arbinger's methodologies help people to overcome it. In the words of an early reviewer of The Anatomy of Peace, "Arbinger helps people to see in a different way?to see problems differently, conflicts differently, challenges differently, opportunities differently, each other differently." To which another added, "I know of no tool or way of thinking that contributes so masterfully to real, lasting peace?in families, organizations, communities, and nations."
