21 WAYS TO DO IT

BILL BORCHERDT
"You Can Control Your Anger! is another fine book by Bill Borcherdt. It very clearly and comprehensively covers practically everything you do to produce your anger, to fool yourself into believing that it helps you, to creatively stop it in its tracks, and to minimize your angrily harming yourself and others by it for the rest of your life. This book beautifully applies the principles of Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) to the personal and worldwide problems of controlling anger and combativeness. By reading and applying its many techniques of fighting against anger, instead of fighting against other people, you may well help to change your own life and make the world a more peaceful place in which to live."

"Bill Borcherdt has written a wonderful book which examines anger from every perspective imaginable. He convincingly demonstrates that anger is always bad for you and you're always better off without it. He clearly shows you how to recognize your anger and then overcome it effectively. I highly recommend this excellent book to every individual who deals with anger, be it their own or the anger of others."

"Anger has served as the basis for widespread problems in our society, including violence and health-related difficulties. In a thought-provoking and refreshing manner, Bill Borcherdt has used the REBT framework to provide an analysis of the negative outcomes of anger; how people cause themselves to get angry with their self-defeating beliefs in the form of demands and either self and/or other damnation; how they can challenge their anger-producing beliefs; and how they can replace their self-defeating beliefs with alternative self-enhancing beliefs, thereby dissipating their anger. This book provides the reader with a straightforward 'how to do it' approach to managing anger by becoming one's own 'anger-control therapist'."
