I don't remember who actually wrote this ... but for better or worse, it sounds
a lot like me. Michael has copies of the original HSD book, which is very
elegant. If the text alone will do -- go tohttps.openspaceworld.com and click
on "books" --- scroll down a bit and you will find a pdf

Dear Glenn,
further below is the respons I got from Royce Holladay of Human Systems
Dynamics Institute that published "The Practice of Peace".
Yes, it is presently not available at amazon.
However, I bought a bunch and had my publisher in Berlin put it into his
online shop, see here
> https://www.westkreuz-verlag.de/de/the-practice-of-peace
In case you go to the shop you will see a short text in English under
the heading "Produktbeschreibung"I will paste it here:
"Basic to the Practice of Peace is the understanding that the organism
is its own best healer, and the power behind that healing is
self-organization. Organism in this context means all living creatures
and entities: You and me, all of us, families, neighborhoods, cities,
companies and countries.
The Practice of Peace involves initiating, sustaining, and in some cases
re-starting, that fundamental engine of our existence,
self-organization. The heart of the Practice then is to consciously
apply the power of self-organization. Practically, this means doing a
very simple thing: Open space wherever, however, and as often as you
can. Using Open Space Technology is a good place to start.
Every moment of the day provides an opportunity to create the conditions
for Peace. To see these more clearly and to use these opportunities
takes some insight and preparation and basic approaches and an
understanding that this practice is a lifelong journey. This book has
all this to offer including a detailed introduction to basic skills for
Peacekeepers such as “Never work harder than you have to”, “Don’t fix it
if it ain’t broke” and, the most important “Never delude yourself into
thinking you are in control”. In addition exciting and delicious
examples from everyday life illustrate the Practice of Peace."
I dont know who wrote this... me, I dont remember.
Further down you see the response from Royce Holladay...
Love and Peace

Thank you for your inquiry, and for your commitment to put Harrison's
work into the world. Unfortunately, we did not create an electronic
version of the book, and we no longer have access to the original
manuscript we used to have it printed.
Best of luck. I did check, and it's no longer available on Amazon, either.
Peace And Grace,
Royce Holladay, MEd, HSDP
