Description
Aikido in Everyday Life: Giving in to Get Your Way Conflict is an inevitable part of life. Aikido, a non-violent martial art, offers a unique approach to conflict resolution. This book presents a system of conflict resolution based on the principles of aikido, developed by its founder after World War II. The authors argue that not all conflicts are contests, and not all conflicts are equally threatening. The authors, Terry Dobson and Victor Miller, explore the concept of "attack-tics" - a system of conflict resolution that draws on the principles of aikido. By understanding the underlying dynamics of conflict, individuals can develop effective strategies for resolving disputes in a peaceful and non-violent manner. This book provides a thought-provoking exploration of conflict resolution, drawing on the principles of aikido to offer a fresh perspective on a universal human challenge.
