At the heart of The Conflict Club is a book: Rising Above the Clouds: The Evaporating Cloud Mastery Book.

This is your core learning resource. It teaches the Perry Approach to the Evaporating Cloud Method from the ground up — not as abstract theory, but as a practice manual designed to work alongside your Conflict Club sessions.

How to use the book

  • Read each chapter at your own pace — there's no rush. The learning deepens through repetition and practice, not speed.

  • Work through the exercises — they're designed to be practical. Complete them in your own time, then bring your clouds and questions to the sessions.

  • It's a living draft — your feedback as a practitioner shapes the final book. If something lands well, tell us. If something's unclear, ask. Your questions make the teaching better.

Note: This is not a textbook. The real learning happens when you take a chapter, work the exercises with a real conflict, and bring what you have built to the community. The book gives you the structure. The sessions give you the practice. Together, they build real capability.
