Summary: I grieved for the other men
Review: ..Anger is a result of sin (ours and others against us) and it is a bondage that can only be broken by the saving power of the cross of Jesus Christ. That is what miraculously set me free and healed me...I think the book is great, read it with a Bible in the other hand and reach a true understanding of what anger is, where it comes from and how it gives satan an open door in our lives and how GOD has provided the ultimate victory.

Summary: Anger Management for Christians only
Review: As person who recently realized they have a problem with quiet anger I was heartened to find this book. The Description on the back cover seemed to describe a good methodology to work on anger management and the first chapter was encouraging.

However, it quickly became evident that there was a lot of religious content in the book and in some cases it was counterproductive. Not all of us can simply believe that God made this so and we need faith to press on.

There is a lot of good material in this book. However, after progressing a third of a way through it I simply couldn't take the religious references and leaps of faith the authors used to dilute what was a promising way of handling anger.

An actively practicing Chrisian would probably find this book helpful. Anyone else should keep looking.

Summary: Maybe it should be called The CHRISTIAN Anger Workbook...
Review: As thought Christians are the only ones who get angry... Or as though, if you want to work with anger more constructively, you ought to become a Christian... This book serves to put off many readers because of it's failure to be inclusive.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Too Christian
Review: I agree with the other people who thought that This book was too Christian. Neither the front nor the back of the book mentioned how Christian the book was. I would have returned it as soon as I realized, but I had already written in it (it is a WORKBOOK after all). I felt totally ripped off and let down

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Life Changing
Review: I am a Christian, and I found this book to be very helpful. It touches some personal areas that I wasn't aware of, and it has helped me enormously. I feel like I have a handle on my anger (with God help of course...)now. I recommend this to any Christian who needs it, and I'm sorry if this book offended those of you who aren't Christians. I think it has great basics covered, so even if you aren't a Christian I think it would help.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Excellent except for the religious comments
Review: I am a psychologist whose private practice specialty is anger management. The Anger Workbook is the best book I have found so far. I use it a lot and would like to recommend it to my clients to buy. However, they are of varying faiths and, as a psychologist, it would be unethical for me to suggest a book with so much religious overtones. It would be very much appreciated if Dr. Carter and Dr. Minirth would write a version without the Biblical sayings and religious advice.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Misrepresented, wish I'd read the reviews before!
Review: I am, ironically, angry, after browsing through the Anger Workbook! There was no indication it was Christian based and now I feel ...well angry!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Anger Workbook
Review: I found this book to be very helpful in helping me to identify my anger and in giving me solutions to controlling it. I am buying a second copy to give to my husband.
