Format:Paperback
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.

I feel this book is well written by an anger sufferer who knows how it feels, he speaks from the heart. There is no fluffing just good solid explanations and lots of exercises, if you are serious about self discovery and healing these will be awesome. Recovery isnt easy and Mike makes no apology for that. In my opinion the exercises are totally relevent, difficult yes, but relevent. It took me about 30 hours to read this book due to its content and time required for the exercises. I was so impressed I have booked and attended one of the authers workshops, Mike is a truelly gifted individual, buy the book, it works.

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.

Anger management-More like anger making!
This book was OK if you have the same mentality as Dr Seuss.
Its not good for an adult reader, too simplistic, too easy, too silly. Read more

Tried and failed, but found something else.
I read it, I understood it and I tried trying it. I thought there was something wrong with me, because it really didn't work for me. Felt really disappointed with myself. Read more

Nothing new or inspiring
Read most of the book but didn't feel inspired enough to finish it. It's probably ok if you're totally new to the subject, but there is nothing new here and I've read better books... Read more
