Choice: A field guide for navigating the polarization of our world and living interdependently, 2nd Ed

By Jared Finkelstein and Kathleen Macferran

Choice is a pocket-sized guide book about creating a reflective space where the reader can explore choices and philosophical perspectives that go beyond right and wrong and into the realm of interdependent relationship. Based upon the key differentiations and principles of Marshall Rosenberg's Nonviolent Communication(TM), this book provides a rigorous investigation of the life-serving motivation embedded in concepts which sometimes appear as polar opposites. Through differentiation and nuanced exploration of these concepts, light is shed on the life-serving purpose at both ends of a seeming continuum between ideas. Readers are invited to apply, on a personal level, a consciousness that leads to self-responsibility, connection and collaboration. Choice will be of benefit to individuals, community leaders, city councils, schools, and organizations in their work with conflict resolution, more effective communication, decision-making, etc.

This second edition includes an new appendix giving an overview of Nonviolent Communication, as well as a new appendix outlining an inquiry process that readers can use to work with the concepts in the book to discover ways to apply those concepts to their relationships and day to day lives.
