This landmark book (San Francisco Chronicle) dispels the common myths about the causes and uses of anger as Dr. Carol Tavris expertly examines every facet of that fascinating emotion--from genetics to stress to the rage for justice.Social psychologist Dr. Carol Tavris explores myths around anger--ideas such as expressing anger is always good for you, suppressing anger is always unhealthy, or that women have special anger problems that men do not--and provides a helpful guide on how to use anger constructively and how to diminish anger without being aggressive or hostile. Fully revised and updated, Anger now includes: -A new consideration of biological politics: Should testosterone or PMS excuse rotten tempers or aggressive actions? -The five conditions under which anger is likely to be effective--and when it's not. -Strategies for solving specific anger problems--chronic anger, dealing with difficult people, repeated family battles, anger after divorce or victimization, and aggressive children.
