Getting the Best of Your Anger

Everyone knows someone whose anger can get out of hand. Maybe that person greets you in the mirror every morning. Or perhaps you know someone who is harming themselves by repressing their pent-up anger. Anger should be felt and expressed, but it can be destructive if not handled properly. Here is a realistic, responsible guide to what anger is and why it gets out of hand. Discussing anger from a biblical perspective, Christian psychologist Dr. Les Carter will help you: identify anger in your life, self-test to determine your level of anger, realize what can make anger an enemy, understand the ways anger is expressed, map out a realistic strategy for handling anger, learn how to express constructive anger, find out what anger is, get it under control and argue fairly. "By understanding anger," Dr. Carter writes, "you can free yourself to live a life of caring and concern."
