Invaluable! Full of ready-to-use advice, rooted in both theory and practice. This book goes well beyond traditional best-sellers in the field, and draws on the latest economic and legal thinking. It is written with a lively pen and illustrated with pointed examples. CEOs, line managers, and strategists in any organization will gain from it. Don't even think about negotiating without reading this book first. --Ben Gomes-Casseres, Professor, Brandeis University
