My neighbor and good friend Hayden Hayden has just written a book entitled "Conscious Choosing for Flow" and I would like to recommend it to the community.  It isn't a technical book, but rather a book on ways to deal with conflict.  Hayden is a successful entrepreneur and currently a coach for executives.  His thesis and the subtitle of the book is "Transforming Conflict into Creativity."  He says his book is targeted at business managers and HR professionals, but I think his message can be more broadly used than that.  Whenever people interact, there is a good chance there will be some conflict somewhere along the way.  Rather than looking to conflict management or negotiation, he offers a third way that he describes as conflict transformation.  He believes and describes how you can consciously choose to turn any conflict into something positive, dynamic, and creative.  His approach is built around STAR... Stop, Think, Act, Review, which is not too far from the DMAIC approach that many engineers know and use.  And not just dry reading, it includes exercises you can use to explore or validate the concepts as they are presented.  It can be as useful to your personal life as it is to your professional life.  His book is available on Amazon in paperback and kindle versions.
