The last several years have seen a significant increase in research
on anger and its clinical treatment. As a result, anger management
has become the topic of many self-help books, but there is
currently no book that brings together for practitioners and
scholars the diversity of therapies used to treat anger in various
populations. Treatments for Anger in Specific Populations provides
information and instruction on empirically supported interventions
for anger in various clinical contexts, including substance abuse,
PTSD, the intellectually disabled, borderline personality disorder,
children and adolescents, and others. Ten chapters focus on
specific populations, while two additional chapters discuss gender
and culturally sensitive considerations in anger treatment. An
introductory chapter by the volume editor, Ephrem Fernandez,
outlines the main therapeutic approaches to anger, summarizing the
boundaries between adaptive and maladaptive anger and providing a
rationale for tailoring anger treatments to specific populations.
For each population-specific chapter, authors provide theoretical
background and literature review, followed by findings on the
efficacy of each treatment. Each treatment evaluated is also
clearly described in terms of clinical procedure. Further, each
chapter contains a clinical case vignette illustrating the
application of particular treatments to particular clients. Where
appropriate, discussions of emerging and as-yet untested therapies
are included. Treatments for Anger in Specific Populations is a
resource to be treasured by clinicians who work regularly with
anger problems and anger disorders, and the volume's careful
balance of research review with important information about
treatment application will also render it useful to scientists
interested in anger.
