description: Most texts on alternative dispute resolution are written from the perspective of someone negotiating for themselves, serving as a neutral, or seeking to reform the legal system. Folberg (U. of San Francisco), Dwight Golann (Suffolk U.), Lisa Kloppenberg (U. of Dayton), and Thomas Stipanowich (CPR Institute for Dispute Resolution) write from the perspective of a lawyer representing a client. After an orientation to the full spectrum of dispute resolution and its contexts for lawyers, they examine the lawyer's role in the four categories of alternatives to negotiation, mediation, arbitration, and stepped or hybrid processes. They provide real-life and literary examples, questions to stimulate class discussion, and exercises and role plays. Annotation ©2005 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
