Book Helps Students, Lawyers in 'Alternative Dispute Resolution'

"Stephen Ware, professor of law, has written 'Principles of Alternative Dispute Resolution,' now in its third edition. The book is a concise guide to the three main processes of what lawyers call 'Alternative Dispute Resolution,' or 'ADR': arbitration, negotiation and mediation.
'Lawyers call these three processes 'alternative dispute resolution' because they are our most common alternatives to courts deciding cases,' Ware said. 'While cases resolved by courts -- judges and juries -- typically get the most media attention, a great many cases are resolved by arbitrators, or by the disputing parties' agreement reached through negotiation or mediation.'"
