 Found wanting and not a good resolution for anger February 5, 2008
0 out of 2 found this review helpful
I found that the definition was Ok, and then really from then on it was rather weak. i was found wanting of more. To techniques it taught to calm yourselve whilst in anger did not seem to work and quite hard to put into practice. this book is OK to view a small amount of theory, although i would not recommend it. Some sections were missing i suspect.
A friend of mine recommended to the author Potter- Efron, who is a strong specialist in the subject matter. i enjoyed this read as it was concise, well verse and logical.
Nothing New and i afraid not well written February 5, 2008

the book did not have anything new to say after i had read a couple of anger books. the structure was a bit weak, the level of research was rather poor, some of the exercises was tiring as they didn't dynamicly change in shape or idea. he also omitted on mentioning couple of key aspects of anger.

This book has been such an eye opener, a great opportunity to learn more about anger, where it comes from and what triggers it. I feel I understand myself and my needs much better and beleive that by working on underlying issues I can feel different and make positive change.
 Insightful & thought-provoking August 3, 2007
6 out of 8 found this review helpful
Never having thought there was anything unusual about how I expressed my anger, my last boyfriend could not handle my occasional angry outburts when I'd felt I was at my wits end. He said it scared him as it seemed like my outburst was disproportionate to what I had felt he had done to upset me.
This book gave me better insight into how people cope with hurt and display their anger, and it's helped me think about things and realise what my "triggers" are. With this knowledge I can now understand that the things that people do these days to upset me aren't done to intentionally hurt me and can relate to events that have happened in the past which I've held onto.
Very interesting read, and I'm glad I bought the book.
Invaluable guide to managing one's everyday anger and stress November 1, 2005
52 out of 55 found this review helpful
This book is totally life transforming.I would strongly recommend this book to anyone interested in the practicalities of dealing with one's own or a loved one's stress, anger or rage. The author, Mike Fisher, does away with the patronising psychobabble and jargon, normally associated with US style 'self-improvement' books. Instead, he delivers a reassuringly user-friendly step-by-step guide, in accessible everyday language, on how to manage - and harness positively - the every day issues that cause us to feel stressed / frustrated / powerless. Mike starts from the refreshing premise that the only thing that makes us angry is our self! The rest of the book builds on this robust theory - and teaches us to take personal responsibility and ownership of our own feelings and emotions. He then suggests techniques how to communicate 'clean / healthy' anger to the world about us in a positive non-confrontational manner. Very empowering! I hope this book helps you as much as it has done me.
