Summary: YES to embracing conflict!!!!
Comment: conflict has been challenging for me all my life...i wonder if it hasn't for anyone! reading gary's book has been such a gift, for not only does he remind me that all conflict begins within me, he also shows me that its cause is a sense of brokeness within myself and that it is simply an invitation for revealing wholeness. wholeness that already is within me, but just hasn't been discovered yet. and now the adventure begins; not one of judging my brokeness, but of disovering and experiencing and expressing my wholeness. and not just in my personal life, but also in my work life. i can't wait!!!! this is a must read for everyone....i can only imagine if we all practiced the principles that gary presents in this book......

Summary: Great God Almighty, Peace at Last!
Comment: I used to have some really bad road rage, peptic ulcers, a fondness for Smith and Wesson, a collection of Schwarzenegger movies, a craving for red meat, a facial tic, and a little vein that always pulsed right at my temple. Then I read this book. Now I hang out with Franciscan monks and grow turnips for the homeless. Of course the thorazine may also have something to do with it....
Seriously, the ideas in this book are the most helpful about conflict resolution I've ever encountered. Gary puts his martial arts and ministerial/spiritual background to excellent use. He boils it all down to it's essence of personal responsibility in a way that not only makes sense, but makes it easy to swallow, get a handle on, and use.
So buy it and give it to everybody in your life that ticks you off!
No seriously, read it and use it, and then all those people will wonder what the heck you got that they don't. Really.

Summary: Conflict and non-conflict:..Each is within us
Comment: It often appears that conflict is the norm and that there's no way to avoid it. We see this in our personal lives and in the entire world around us. We see it on TV and in the movies. We hear it in a lot of popular songs. We read about it in the newspapers.
However, there is an alternative to all this lying within each individual. Careful reading of Gary Simmons' book should help one understand the how and why of this conflict, and how to embrace, rather than resist, it and thus learn the effective way to deal with it.
This isn't Pollyana stuff. The author teaches martial arts, and his teaching comes from strength, not from timidity and passiveness.
For those who are super serious in their desire to deal effectively with conflict, I recommend buying the tape EMBRACE TIGER, RETURN TO MOUNTAIN, along with this book. However, if you're not ready for that, than go for the book itself.
