In the years since the publication of the first edition of Peace and Power: New Directions for Building Community, the author has refined the processes outlined in the book through her experiences in classrooms, committees, and workshops, building meaningful relationships through a nurturing and empowering leadership method. The Eighth Edition of Peace and Power benefits from these years of positive and constructive leadership experiences. This Edition of Peace and Power focuses on clarity, highlighting key elements of group interactions that promote greater group integrity and cooperation. Readers of Peace and Power will benefit from a handbook that inspires ways of incorporating value into work, home, and community. For eight editions, nurse leaders have relied on this book to provide a hands-on guide for developing cooperative group processes and for overcoming the habits of exclusionary group interactions. This book remains a valuable resources for community groups, classes, committees, and others seeking to create change toward a more equitable model and more satisfying (peaceful) group interactions.
