We live in an angry society - and it's getting angrier. The annual "Social Trends Survey" shows that complaints about noise and disturbance have increased five-fold in the last 20 years. There has been a 400 per cent increase in air rage incidents in recent years. And, the British Association for Anger Management reports that the UK has the dubious distinction of being the second-worst country in the world for road rage. There is a perception that men are angrier than women, but, the evidence suggests they merely express it differently, often shying away from outright expressions of hostility and rage. Society also discourages female anger, which is often dismissed, trivialized, or explained away in terms of hormones. Small wonder, then, that women's anger is often invisible, sometimes even to themselves. Whatever your style, "The Guide to Anger Management" explores how people can creatively make the most of this powerful emotion. Topics include: the real causes of anger; different ways of expressing anger; using anger to your advantage; communication skills for tense situations; handling hostile personal situations; handling public anger; and, how to live more peacefully. But, while mindless rage leads nowhere, healthy anger can be a valuable emotion that enables us to deal with danger and to change uncomfortable situations.
