Publisher's Synopsis
A radically effective and evidence-based anger management tool--deeply rooted in cutting-edge research We are living in an age of anger. You hear people squabbling on the news. Reality TV portrays people baiting others into anger. We see more frustration and intolerance for people with different political views, beliefs, and lifestyles. Anger is everywhere--and it has real risks, including heart disease and depression. So, how can you break free from painful, self-defeating, and dangerous anger traps?
