The Negotiation Fieldbook, Second Edition : Simple Strategies to Help You Negotiate Everything

Book excerpt: The classic guide to collaborative negotiation--updated for today's ultracompetitive environment "We negotiate every day--in school, in business, in politics, in everything we do. Every time I want to influence someone or deal with someone who wants to influence me, I am negotiating. For that world, this is perhaps the most useful book you will ever find." -- Roger Fisher, bestselling coauthor of Getting to Yes The definitive practical guide to the art of negotiating, this revised and expanded edition of The Negotiation Fieldbook details topics other books don't even touch upon.
