Synopsis

The Anatomy of Peace will instil hope and inspire reconciliation. Through a series of moving stories about once-bitter enemies reunited, it shows us how we routinely misunderstand the causes of conflict - and perpetuate the very problems we're trying to solve. The Anatomy of Peace shows you how to:

- Focus on helping things go right, rather than 'fixing' things that go wrong
- Think about others as people with fears of their own, not obstacles in your way
- Stop worrying about how the world sees you
- Learn to move away from blame and bitterness
