 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.
