The very important distinction between "collaboration" and "cooperation."
What we naturally tend to "do wrong" when negotiating.
The major difference between academic negotiation and real-world hostage negotiation.
Why emotional intelligence is a key to success in both hostage negotiations and business.
The importance of the extremely powerful "calibrated questions."
