Book Discussion: Powerful Peace: A Navy SEAL’s Lessons on Peace from a Lifetime at War

Monday, October 22, 2012 10:00 pm - 11:00 pm
Center for Strategic and International Studies B1 A/B Conference Room 1800 K Street, NW Washington DC, 20006

Rick "Ozzie" Nelson, Director of the CSIS Homeland Security and Counterterrorism Program, cordially invites you to a discussion of: “Powerful Peace: A Navy SEAL’s Lessons on Peace from a Lifetime at War”

A new book from:

J. Robert DuBois
Author and former U.S. Navy SEAL

Introduction by

Rick “Ozzie” Nelson

Director, Homeland Security and Counterterrorism Program
Center for Strategic and International Studies

“Nowhere is the cost of failure higher than in the life-and-death struggle of armed conflict. Now J. Robert Dubois harnesses that real-world sense of wartime urgency to guide our search for solutions to challenging problems. He takes on a crucial and unprecedented mission for a retired Navy SEAL: the relentless pursuit of interpersonal and international peacekeeping as an imperative to global security. A treatise for policy makers and warriors, mediators and educators, Powerful Peace is also a compelling and practical guide to problem solving for every engaged citizen.”  Please join the CSIS Homeland Security and Counterterrorism Program on the evening of October 22 for a discussion with J. Robert DuBois regarding his new book, Powerful Peace, as well as his insights into the importance of peacemaking at the global and personal level.
