Dance of Anger a Womans Guide to Changing the Patterns of Intimate Relationships

The 20th Anniversary Edition of the renowned classic and New York Times bestseller

Anger is something we feel. It exists for a reason and always deservesour respect and attention. We all have a right to everythingwe feel -- and certainly our anger is no exception.

"Anger is a signal and one worth listening to," writes Dr. Harriet Lerner in her renowned classic that has transformed the lives of millions of readers. While anger deserves our attention and respect, women still learn to silence our anger, to deny it entirely, or to vent it in a way that leaves us feeling helpless and powerless. In this engaging and eminently wise book, Dr. Lerner teaches women and men to identify the true sources of anger and to use it as a powerful vehicle for creating lasting change.
