Synopsis

Story-Formed Pathways to Peace is the second edition of the award-winning - first edition. Though this edition retains the content of the first, it has been expanded to include a very practical "best practice" application at the end of each storied chapter. The stories themselves, retold from ancient sacred texts, have resonated through the ages not only with those religious, but also with thinkers, artists, musicians, and others who have seen in the universal patterns of behavior. The characters in the stories model both negative and positive ways of working with conflict. And the added "best practice" application makes clear how the best that is modeled in each story is exemplary for everyday living in our time, whether in families, communities, and even nations.
