“As a therapist, I have found anger to be one of the most complicated, confusing emotions that people have, yet few resources deal with this topic. Instant Anger Management provides a comprehensive and easy-to-understand guide to coping with anger, including why we get angry and how to handle anger without becoming destructive. People will like the ‘try this’ sections, which clearly describe strategies to manage anger and stay emotionally healthy.”

“Licensed clinical professional counselor Karmin (Anger Management Workbook for Men) says it’s the little things (e.g., traffic congestion) that usually set people off. Using cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Karmin helps readers control their anger by identifying their interpretation of events (e.g., “they did that on purpose”) and then exploring options for the expression of anger. He advises eating and sleeping well, practicing mindfulness, and learning progressive muscle relaxation to defuse a situation. The author also demonstrates how one can maintain a positive outlook and express oneself effectively. VERDICT: Excellent, easy advice for those who live with a short fuse.”
