Anger: Handling a Powerful Emotion in a Healthy Way

A relative makes a tactless comment about your child's weight. The guy behind you on the expressway follows too closely. Your wife lets the gas tank go down to empty...again.

We live in an angry society.  From road rage to workplace incidents to marital bickering, out-of-control anger is all around us.  How can we handle our anger—and help those we love with theirs?  How can we teach our children to deal with their anger?  And what about those long-simmering feelings of anger toward people in our past?  What's the difference between "bad" and "good" anger?  Bestselling author and relationship expert Dr. Gary Chapman offers helpful—and sometimes surprising—insights on why we get angry, what we can do about it, and how we can use anger for good.

Includes a 13-session discussion guide perfect for small groups, workplace studies, and book clubs. Each chapter ends with reflection questions.
