Book Reviews of Working with Anger

Book Review: A Refreshing Approach to Dealing with Anger and its Causes
Summary: 5 Stars

Whether or not you have any interest in Buddhism, Thubten Chodron's lucid explanations of Buddhist antidotes to disturbing emotions are nothing less than fascinating. As a former teacher who grew up near Los Angeles, she easily bridges the culture gap between east and west. I have found the observations in this book to be very useful both in dealing with my own anger and anger in others. Her down to earth style addresses some major questions in a very practical way. What is anger? Is anger an accurate assessment of reality? Is anger ever useful as an antidote to feelings of vulnerability, guilt or self-blame? Is it essential for winning at sports? Is it instinctive? Is it necessary for social change? What causes us to respond with anger? Is anger caused by others or does it arise within ourselves? Is anger warranted when others let us down or betray us? How should we deal with envy? Are we ever justified in being angry with ourselves? How should we deal with others who are angry?
