Product Description
Product Description
Men tend to express their anger differently than women do. Research shows men are often more violent and less willing to confront and deal with their emotions than women. Written by a psychologist who specializes in the treatment of male rage, Beyond Anger shows the angry - and miserable - man how to change his life and relationships for the better. This book helps men understand their anger by explaining what the specific symptoms of chronic anger are and by showing angry men how their actions negatively affect family, friends, and coworkers. It helps men control violent feelings by using simple exercises - developed especially for men - to identify when and why anger occurs and by helping them form new habits to prevent anger before it starts. Women, too, will learn essential strategies for understanding and helping the angry men in their lives. Beyond Anger is honest, tough, and real.

Angry? Then raise your quality of life....,
By A Customer
This review is from: Beyond Anger: A Guide for Men - How to Free Yourself from the Grip of Anger and Get More Out of Life (Paperback)
I recently bought this book when I realised my anger was destructive, and also affecting my stress levels and thereto the quality of life for my fiancée and I.The book is targeted at men, specifically, (hence my reason for buying it over others) and deals with all types of anger, manifestations thereof, symptoms, and then in the next stage, talks about spotting the signs of anger, temper and rage, and learning to control them. There are case studies, exercises, and good all round advice. The whole point, guys - as the book repeats, is that anger is like any emotion, and it's healthy to show it.. the unhealthy part is when you lose control of the emotion and descend into stress, then depression, and take your loved ones with you. This guide will not cure you in the blink of an eye - it may take you a few reads for a change to even become evident, but once you've accepted, as I did, that you have a problem with your temper, this book will be an invaluable aid to your road back to controlling your emotion, and learning to use the anger constructively rather than destructively. If you do one thing to help ease your temper, buy and read this book (ok that's 2 things - but lets not sweat it.).

This review is from: Beyond Anger: A Guide for Men - How to Free Yourself from the Grip of Anger and Get More Out of Life (Paperback)
This is an excellent book.Within the first third of the book you will get the message. And you will perhaps ask yourself why you hadn't seen things how they were but dont worry, this excellent book does it for you in that it walks you gently through the steps, and īs there on the shelf to refer back to. Realising that my anger wasn't as simple as just 'frustration with the world and the idiots in it', but more to do with my own self esteem was a deep insight that has rapidly changed my anger levels. I know i am an ok person and i dont constantly need to prove it to everyone. Now its time to repair some of the damage i have caused in my marriage, with work colleagues and to ensure i dont pass on similar damage to my son.

I wish I'd read this years ago.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Beyond Anger: A Guide for Men - How to Free Yourself from the Grip of Anger and Get More Out of Life (Paperback)
It took 30 years for me to finally admit that my anger was out of hand.. I was wearing myself down with outbursts of fury and destructive anger and had broken many relationships in the process. I bought this book as the 'first stage' in my process of learning to control my temper..In reading this book it is first important to appreciate you have a problem, and that the reading of it will not instantly change your life. Nor will it rid you of your temper. The underlying message throughout is that anger as an emotion is fine.. destructive and maladaptive anger is not. The book teaches you to spot signs of anger in you, and tries to get you to see where these signs have come from. Then it deals in the second half with learning to change the way you think to avoid these feelings coming in future. Dr Harbin has himself been a slave to his temper, and this makes you feel more akin to him. That he has something of value to tell you and you want to listen. I can say that having owned this book for 3 months, I have read it twice already and will read it a 3rd time before the end of the year. It's important to keep the points it brings up fresh in your mind, otherwise you will quickly slip back into your old ways again. I am already feeling the benefits, and hope to continue to do so for the rest of my life. This is not a cure-all.. one read will not cure you of your temper and destructive behaviour, but hard work, and diligence, based on what this book is teaching you will lead to a higher quality of life for you and those around you.
