Negotiation is an integral and pragmatic tool. Churchman provides a concise and practical guide to negotiation as it actually occurs in 90% of all negotiations--that is, so-called win-lose tactics. Understanding only the win-win tactics taught in most classes and books is like training a football team only on offense. Think of this book as defensive. He outlines and defines key terms and concepts behind negotiation tactics that have proven effective throughout history thereby providing a clear introduction for the novice, while also offering an organized framework for the experienced.
