Book Reviews of Anger Kills: Seventeen Strategies for Controlling the Hostility That Can Harm Your Health

Book Review: Anger Can Be Hazardous to Your Health
Summary: 5 Stars

"Getting angry is like taking a small dose of some slow-acting poison, arsenic...every day of your life (Page XV).

This books explains that hostility is at the root of our anger.
One cannot get rid of anger with a wish and a prayer or even a commitment not to do it again. I tried this dozens of times and it never works. This books tells me I must chip anger away a little bit at a time (until the day I die). The author states that "three aspects of hostility that are harmful to health are cynicism, anger, and aggression."

Cynicism: a mistrusting attitude,
Anger: the emotion that we show when confronted with unacceptable behavior, and
Aggression: the behavior to which hostile people are driven.

I will never cured of this habit since I had since six years old.
I must treat anger like someone keep away from any other addiction.
