A life without anger is attainable - if you understand The Anger Fallacy.
Anger is everywhere - behind everything from road rage to wrap rage, domestic violence to international conflicts. People cling to their anger, as a tool of influence and a driver of revenge. But is anger really ever useful? And can we learn to overcome it?
In this entertaining and groundbreaking book, two of Australia's leading clinical psychologists take a radical approach to anger management, exploding the irrational beliefs that fuel this noxious and misunderstood emotion. Through numerous examples from popular culture and the consulting room, and with a sizeable dose of humour, the authors show how to combat anger by substituting empathy and understanding for righteous angry judgements. Along the way, readers will learn a new way of viewing people and their actions that is at once powerful and serene.
