A very interesting read. This book covered many aspects that I agree with and that I could relate to.

A very easy read. Davids writing is concise and informative. I will be reading more of his books in the near future!

This book is a (must read) piece of material for persons with not only anger management issues, but looking for self development.I deeply appreciate its valuable information and will apply these practices to my life, I'm fully confident that they would work.

Great book, i learned a lot. Thank you!

Wonderful book. Thank you for your educative approach. It feels good to know that every capable speaking person has a role to play in society. Many people can speak and let every word that comes out add value to behaviour and attitude change and, finally make the world a pieceful place to live.

I have just began reading yet within the first pages solutions to anger are already practically evident.

Great example of how to redirect and negotiate our feelings in an appropriate style. I will be using it at a talk I am doing for 12-14 year old cgildren Fri Dec 12/08. Will let you know the feedback.

I found this book very helpful. It showed me that anger was also a good thing which is so contrary to what we are taught at school and at work.

The author David Samuel reveals a practice that is very easy to understand and apply: that if we look past the words and respond instead based on the emotional state of the person speaking then we will interpret what they're saying accurately and not offend them or get trapped into an argument.

I have noticed that my own anger has lessoned considerably in the short while following my first read of it. And my anger for injustices I see around me has increased giving me a lot more energy.

One personal example where this has improved is when I go through my 'to do' list each day. If I am being lazy or procrastinating I am able to get very angry at my attitude and this gives me the energy to get moving and achieving my goals.

The only criticism I have with this book is its layout. I would have liked small titles to break up the pages so I can quickly reference them when I need to remind myself of its message.

Otherwise an excellent resource. Its concepts and exercises are written for the person serious about making immediate positive changes in their life. Highly recommended read and amazing that it is free.
