His latest book, Family Wars: Classic conflicts in family business and how to deal with them, written with Grant Gordon, is published this month by Kogan Page. Quote by Nigel Nicholson in Blood Ties: &quot;For our book Family Wars, I and Grant Gordon (director general of the UK&#8217;s Institute for Family Business) analysed 24 case histories worldwide, looking at some of the highest-profile family conflicts of recent times. We wanted to see what common themes they exhibited, and what lessons might be learned.<br \/>They are an enthralling mix. There are awesome melodramas of skulduggery, double-cross, relentless vengeance and, in one case (the Gucci saga), even a hitman. Then there are more mundane but equally depressing stories &#8211; where families lock themselves into positions of increasing entrenchment.&quot;<br \/>7. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dallasnews.com\/sharedcontent\/dws\/dn\/localnews\/columnists\/sblow\/stories\/030608dnmetblow.2d285e6.html\">Group helps heal wounds of child estrangement<\/a>, March 5, 2008<br \/>Quote from article: &quot;H.E.R. promises no happily-ever-after outcomes.
