We are a nation of plenty, of opportunity, and luxury, but we are
also a nation flush with fury. Homicides, assaults, domestic abuse,
youth violence, and even road rage are too common, let alone
everyday outbursts of temper that harm family members, friends,
peers, and co-workers. The market for anti-anger, mood-stabilizing
drugs is booming, as is the market for anger management counseling
and classes. What is happening? In this book, a team of experts
who've been traveling the nation presenting workshops on Rethinking
Anger start by telling us this: Anger is normal; nature hardwired
into our brains for protection. But here is the paradox. Anger out
of control destroys, yet anger understood and controlled is a
constructive force, one that can be used for creativity, change,
and growth. Authors Baruch, Grotberg, and Stutman show us how to
take charge of this powerful emotion, so it can be used in
constructive ways, rather than destructive. Using the anger energy
constructively can release creative potential and be liberating. We

Ten years of research and workshops have honed the knowledge and
skills of this author team, and here they guide us to taming our
anger into a positive force. This book will be useful to all trying
to tame their own anger, or that of others close to them. It will
also be of interest to teachers, counselors, managers and students
of psychology.
