helpful to a great many readers."

therapy, and author of A New Guide to Rational Living
"The authors have done an excellent job in revising an already
excellent book. They have integrated new research topics, such as
addressing anger when driving. McKay and collegues provide a wealth
of practical strategies fo ranger management and making
self-directed change. User friendly, simply and clearly written,
without professional jargon, the book is a delight to read and
should be very useful to clinician and lay person alike."

researcher, Colorado State University, Fort Collins, Colorado, and

"The latest edition of When Anger Hurts is at the cutting edge of
recent work on anger. The work on emergency anger control and the
costs of anger is an important contribution to the literature. The
new presentations on creating an anger coping plan and providing
anger inoculation techniques add substantially to the armamentarium
of individuals dealing with this problem."
