Good Books for ADR

Books recommended by Prof. Richard Birke.

" if you want to know how to negotiate better, you need to understand how to make better decisions and what’s going on for the decision-makers across the table."

The full list is here.   I particularly value these two:

Robert Axelrod – The Evolution of Cooperation (how cooperation can emerge in competitive environments)

Cass Sunstein and Richard Thaler – Nudge (how to get people to do things that are good for them)
