Like it or not, negotiation is a fact of life.  Without even knowing it, you negotiate something every day.  A discussion on the price you are willing to pay for a house with a stranger or a curfew time with your daughter.  Perhaps you will find yourself negotiating with your partner about what to buy, where to eat, what television station to watch or who gets the remote!  At work, you’re faced with discussions about a raise with your boss or the perfect time for a meeting with your colleagues.
