 Harriet Goldhor Lerner


          Anger is a signal and one worth listening to. Our anger may be a message that we are being hurt, that our rights are being violated, that our needs and wants are not being adequately met or simply something is not right. Anger may tell us that we are not addressing an important emotional issue in our lives, or that too much of our self- our beliefs, values, desires, or ambitions is being compromised in a relationship. It's a signal that we are doing more and giving more than we can comfortably do or give.Its a warning that others are doing too much for us. Some reasons of anger often meets with the rejection and disappointment of others because of appearance, attitude, and some other reasons.  

           Anger is something we feel. It exist for a reason and always deserves our respect and attention. We all have the right to everything we feel and certainly our anger is no exception. If we don't know how to handle our anger, it may cause broken relationship and loss of self-esteem for it. Without knowing how to control anger, there will be a large possibilities of losing self control and people around will never understand you. 

            As to this book, it shows how powerful anger is and its damages in our lives. In order to avoid broken relationship and misunderstanding, we should know how to control our anger and learn how to calm ourselves in every difficult situation that we have in our lives. Anger don't give any means of positiveness in our life for in fact, it gives stress and disturbance to everyone.
