A life changing book

I've just got to recommend any one of these books written by C. Terry Warner and the Arbinger Institute:



The Anatomy of Peace: Resolving the Heart of Conflict [Book]
Leadership and self-deception: getting out of the box [Book]

Bonds That Make Us Free: Healing Our Relationships, Coming to Ourselves [Book]
Frequently as I have done counseling, I have been able to use the concepts from these books and encourage clients to get these books.  Too often it is true that the only reason we can't solve our relationship problems is because we are deceived: We don't see that we are a huge part of the problem.  The only thing we can change is ourselves.

Each book gets down to the very heart of conflict.  They describe the same concepts, each in a different way.  They make the reader look at him or herself and think about how we can honor our relationships by being true to the call of humanity in all of us.

If you have read one or more of them, tell me which one you read and let me know what you think.  If you haven't read any of them, I strongly encourage you get a copy, digest it, then let me know what you think.
