Explores the motivations of peacemakers to find the skills, traits and values that underlay the methods and strategies of non-violence. Replete with real-world examples of peacemaking, it clearly and explicitly shows how individuals and societies choose to handle the conflicts that are a natural part of our lives.

This guide to nonviolent conflict resolution presents thirty methods of maintaining or achieving peace, each with an in-depth case study. Methods covered, and their real-world applications, include the art of diplomacy (the 1995 Dayton Peace Accords), fair trade (the 1997 fair trade certification agreement), civil disobedience (the civil rights movement in the United States), humanitarianism (the rescue of the Hungarian Jews during the Holocaust), the rule of law (the International Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia), and peace education (the Nobel Peace Prize), among many others. It concludes with a summary of the methods and the virtues of peace.
