International negotiation text + ICONS simulation = perfect match

Book cover International Negotiation in a Complex World, updated 4th edition by Brigid Starkey, Mark Boyer, and Jonathan Wilkenfeld, offers a solid introduction to the complicated arena of international negotiation. A game-board analogy provides the framework for examining international negotiation through a series of case studies. The three authors also have significant experience with ICONS simulations and feature an overview of ICONS in the text's appendix. Pairing the book with an ICONS simulation provides the perfect combination of negotiation theory and application. Try it out!
