The Art of Fighting: The Transformative Power of Conflict
A paradigm-shattering exploration of how we disagree and how to do it more effectively.
A groundbreaking exploration of how we fight and how we build healthy conflict, from the author of The Art of Gathering.
We say we want community. Successful teams, dynamic friend groups and high-performing colleagues. Yet many of us don't understand the crucial element we need to forge long-lasting communities: healthy conflict.
Although most of us fear conflict, fighting can be an opportunity to broaden our perspectives, reach new breakthroughs, and bring us even closer together. The Art of Fighting teaches the transformative art of 'healthy heat', and how it can help us overcome any disagreement - from book club squabbles to board room brawls.
Priya Parker draws on her original research, real-world examples and her far-reaching experience to offer an authoritative and expansive guide to the challenges, nuances and endless opportunity of conflict.

Publishing has a diversity problem. There are less 'diverse' books being published which limits the discoverability and reach of those authors.
Representation is important. Read more about why we exist here.
An anti-racist social enterprise bookstore specialising in BIPOC books.
Only about 11% of books published are by BIPOC authors — so unless you specifically seek out books by BIPOC authors, you aren't likely to find very many of them organically. At Amplify, BIPOC authors are highlighted and celebrated. Here, they don't have to fight to be seen, and you don't have to fight to find them.
We hope that in our shop, you can discover a new favourite read, find stories that speak uniquely to you, learn about a culture outside your own (or more about your own histories), and gain a better understanding of the systems that connect us all.
