From the Back Cover
Make anger your ally, not your enemy.
Anger isn’t wrong in itself--it’s the way we use and express it that can be labeled right or wrong. You can learn to channel your anger in a positive way and make it a strength, a way of standing up for yourself and promoting change.

• what anger is and why we experience it
• how to identify your level of anger
• behaviors that make anger an enemy

• how to argue fairly
Don’t let anger get the best of you. With the guidance in this book, you can learn to control the emotions you’ve been given.
