SIMI Book Reviews 

Further to SIMI's efforts in promoting research and education in mediation academia, publishers and authors may send review copies of their titles to SIMI for review. In return, SIMI will assist in publicising the titles and the reviews here on SIMI's website as well as on SIMI's social media.

In addition, certain reviews may be co-published under an arrangement between SIMI and the Asian Journal Of Mediation (AJM). Under this arrangement, book reviews published by either SIMI or the AJM will be made available both here on SIMI's website as well as in the AJM. Users and practitioners alike will thus have greater access and visibility of notable books on mediation.

The list of published reviews for the are set out below, together with links where the titles can be purchased online.
