Conflict & Reconciliation
John W. Bowker
Price: $34.99
ISBN: 978-0-9780431-9-3
Religions are involved in many long-running conflicts around the world from the Balkans and the Middle East to Kashmir and Sri Lanka. All that is well known. Not so well-known are the resources that religions can bring, specifically and uniquely, to the process of peace and reconciliation after conflict. This book looks in detail at the ways in which the search for reconciliation is an obligation, even a command, in particular religions. Religions understand reconciliation very differently, and those differences are made clear in this book. But the quest for reconciliation, however differently it is understood, is an obligation in religions that should be much better understood and employed by those who seek peace in the world.

With the uprising rate of divorce involving children, a pattern of abnormal behavior has emerged that has received scarce attention. One of the abnormal behaviors is the Divorce Related Malicious Mother Syndrome (Prof. Ira Daniel Turkat, Journal of Family Violence, Volume 10, No. 3, p 253-264, 1995). While the majority of divorce cases are "settled" from a legal perspective, outside the courtroom the battle continues. The objective of The Anatomy of Divorce book is to present an honest and documented case study of a divorce based on related malicious mother syndrome. Robert Tansley offers complex details to assist those who have experienced divorce or are in the midst of divorce to find a path to healing, to letting go, to moving on, and finding some peace. The book is written autobiographically and referenced by court documents and letters to lawyers. The Anatomy of Divorce is an excellent reference and required reading to professionals in the field of divorce: social workers, lawyers, judges, psychologists, and doctors as well as everyone interested in divorce.
