 The
following is a synopsis of the first book edition:
This book is written with a strong Christian emphasis. Most
people believe that anger is a negative emotion from which
no good can
come. Many Christians think
that anger should not be expressed and that such feelings are sinful. This
book explores the emotion of anger and how anger-which is part
of the human experience-is
a force God can use for His purposes. The authors present a biblical approach
to managing anger, identifying the process of anger; biblical examples of "good
anger"; and how faith, assertiveness, problem-solving and forgiveness
impact anger and can be used by God for his purposes.
