'Artificial intelligence is permeating all sectors of activity, and conflict resolution is no exception. This collaborative work provides a comprehensive overview of the uses and practices of AI in conflict resolution that are beginning to develop, and also offers an interesting perspective on future trends. An essential book for anyone interested in the use of technology in civil justice.' Karim Benyekhlef, Cyberjustice Lab, Université de Montréal
