Professor Tania Sourdin's third edition of ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION secures its position as one of Australia's leading works in the field. By bringing to the book her extensive experience as a mediator, Supreme Court solicitor, researcher, educator, member of the Administrative Appeals Tribunal and member of the National Alternative Dispute Resolution Advisory Council, Professor Sourdin presents readers with the practical skills necessary to operate in this area of law, and a solid analysis of the theory. The work reports on the continuing growth and transformation of ADR and conflict management approaches in Australia and overseas. Since the second edition, new legislation in Australia has embedded ADR practices within a wider range of contexts, new standards have redefined accreditation in business and community-based ADR, there has been a significant evolution in online dispute resolution and an emergence of processes that focus on relational approaches to conflict, in local and global situations. The third edition takes note of these developments, bringing all areas of the work up-to-date.
