“The essence of NVC through the inimitable way Marshall would present the teachings—with creativity, courage, warmth, and humor.”
—LUCY LEU, dedicated NVC practitioner and editor of Nonviolent Communication
“This book is an absolute gem! Marshall’s voice is loud and clear. Organized by topics, this book offers us a way into the heart of Marshall’s teachings. It dispels any doubt about NVC being a way of life, more than a system of communication. And it clarifies that NVC is a spirituality that inclines toward social change for the benefit of all. Brilliant!”
—STEPHANIE BACHMANN MATTE, coauthor of The Heart of Nonviolent Communication, certified trainer and assessor with CNVC, and certified teacher in Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction
“What a treasured resource this is! I love the ease and clarity of how this book organizes Marshall’s life-affirming ideas. Now, rather than scouring the internet for that “just right” quote to support my NVC training and practice, I can easily find just what I’m looking for in one place!”
—JIM MANSKE, author of Pathways to Nonviolent Communication and certified trainer and assessor with CNVC
“These quotes so beautifully and powerfully capture this remarkable man who somehow was able to create Nonviolent Communication.”
—JOHN KINYON, CNVC trainer, mediator, and cocreator of Mediate Your Life training based in NVC
“This extraordinary book encapsulates the wisdom from a humble guru, a man so wise that he presented himself off the pedestal, never needed to feel above anyone or anything, and who gave the world an invaluable, precious gem called NVC.”
—ALAN RAFAEL SEID, CNVC certified trainer and founder of Kalapa, a school for Changemakers
