This is Bill Eddy's book filled with lots of practical methods for handling High Conflict People (HCPs) in any setting, including neighbor disputes, workplace conflicts, family battles, with strangers, etc.

HCPs target those close to them and people in positions of authority, so in this book Bill focuses on what to do when YOU are the Target of Blame—and how to avoid or prevent being one for long.

Bill defines the characteristics of HCP behavior and describes Borderline Personality Disorder, Narcissistic Personality Disorder, Histrionic Personality Disorder and Antisocial Personality Disorder and why they drive people to act the way they do.

It is organized around 12 Key Tips (5 Do’s and 7 Don’ts), that simplify large concepts into small, easy-to-remember phrases when you’re under the stress of a high conflict dispute. This book is for the general public, so you can give it to anyone.

Fantastic Book for Anybody and Everybody You Know!	May 15, 2012
Reviewer: Rosemary Fansher, M. A. from Orlando, Florida

This book is required reading all my Parenting Coordinators and mediators in the Ninth Circuit Court! That's how good it is. Read this book if you want to understand WHY conflict happens and what types of people give us mediators job security. This book by Bill Eddy has helped all of us do our jobs better and with more success now that we realize it is not about the ISSUES---it's about the PEOPLE! I smile a little smile, Bill, every time I hear someone say, "There is no hope for this case---they have 25 ISSUES!" I know, and anyone else who has read your books knows, they do not have 25 issues. They have (at least )25 symptoms of High Conflict People! People learn to look inside themselves for the answers. You cannot change the past, but you sure can TRANSFORM the future for yourself, your children, and your grandchildren. Leave a legacy of peace for all the world to see. Maybe, just maybe, because of you, they will dare to dream that dream for themselves.
