Remain in control when stress threatens with this proven 8-week program from the creators of the internationally acclaimed Lifeskills workshops For the last three decades, Dr. Redford Williams has been at the forefront of research in behavioral medicine. The New York Times has described him as an authority "widely acknowledged as the guru of anger management." Drawing on his groundbreaking research, he and his wife and coauthor, Dr. Virginia Williams, wrote Anger Kills, the bestselling book that is regarded as the seminal work on the potent effects negative emotions have on the body. Now these renowned self-help experts have taken their strategies to a new level with this easy-to-follow program that teaches readers how to handle all types of situations, from overbearing colleagues to a lack of communication at home to irritating situations like delayed flights. Remarkably, this book's program works equally for "hot reactors," who have a tendency to blow up when things don't go their way, and "cool reactors," who are more likely to swallow their emotions. Hot reactors will learn to stop and think before their anger explodes, and cool reactors will learn how to acknowledge their emotions and assert themselves—leading both to be more in control of their lives.
