A Guide to Healthy Anger Expression! How do you express your anger? Do you blow up? Quietly seethe? Or do you try to pretend that you're really not angry at all and just hope the feelings will go away? Most of us express anger in more than one way, but we also tend to be creatures of habit, falling back on a few predictable styles when we feel angry. Unfortunately, while some styles are appropriate in some situations, others are not-and consistently using an inappropriate style is a sure way to find yourself saddled with a huge anger problem. This book examines the eleven most common styles of anger expression and helps you learn how to communicate your anger in healthy ways. Learn which anger styles work for different situations-and which ones lead to certain disaster. Find out how to become more flexible and creative at expressing your anger. Once you understand the whole range of anger styles, you'll be able to better manage angry feelings and use your anger as a positive force for building a better life.… (more)

Quite an interesting look at anger and how it works both for and against people. Gave me a lot of things to think about and work with. A good point to start for people on looking at the ways they deal with their anger and how anger has it's uses. ( )

[back cover] "Authors Ron and Pat Potter-Efron have identified ten anger styles--the most common ways that people express or disguise anger, each with its own unique strengths and weaknesses. Through revealing self-tests and real-life examples, readers learn how to recognize their own style (or combination of styles) and what they can do if they feel stuck in that style. Their techniques are for anyone who wants to learn to express anger in healthy and productive ways."
