Product Description
From AudioFile
Harriet Lerner shines the spotlight on human interactions and the way women deal with anger in this unabridged guide to improving relationships with loved ones. Barbara Caruso keeps the listener hanging on every word in a beautifully choreographed reading of a weighty subject. Using stories from Lerner's varied experiences as a clinical psychologist, Caruso conveys new steps to overcome old, obsolete patterns of interactions with family, friends, co-workers and partners. In a firm but caring voice she offers hope for any woman frustrated by the current state of her life with others. Rather than change partners, Lerner guides listeners to change the music of their lives. And Caruso croons just the right tune to make this all seem possible.

Review
“Of all the books that have been written about the personal relationships of women and what to do about them, this is the most sound. Like a family heirloom, it can be passed from generation to generation as it is based on profound and lasting truths.” (Peggy Papp, M.S.W., The Ackerman Institute for Family Therapy )

This review is from: Dance Of Anger Reissue (Paperback)
Wow, I can't believe what an eye-opener this was, and I've recommended it to maybe 20 friends. Dance of Anger provides a clear explanation of many of the situations in which women find themselves feeling angry and not quite knowing why or how or who or most of all, what to do about it. Bottom line is, it is only by changing yourself within a relationship that you can hope to motivate (or just make it possible for) others to change and grow. Women are conditioned to stifle their anger or deny it, and this only leads to reactions in other areas that compound the situation. "Anger deserves recognition."It's definitely not a quick fix, but it just may lead to long term solutions for the things that mightily bug us in our daily relationships with spouses, parents, children, co-workers, bosses, etc., etc., etc. Read it and give another copy to a friend - or enemy!

This book is changing my life,
By A Customer
This review is from: Dance Of Anger Reissue (Paperback)
I had already read "The Anger Habit," and I thought that book changed my life completely. I might have stopped there, having learned so much and been so much more at peace. I'm glad I didn't. "The Dance of Anger" is along completely different lines, but it still has taught me invaluable lessons. Mostly, I am learning what is my responsibility and what is not. I think I had things completely backward, as so many of us do. My whole attitude and perspective have changed. My husband is impressed with the changes in me and says he will read this book after he finishes "The Anger Habit." I consider this book a gift in my life, and I highly recommend it to anyone.

If you are ready for change, read this book.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Dance Of Anger Reissue (Paperback)
My therapist recommended this book and it has helped me immensely. As someone who was reluctant to engage in therapy or read self-help books, I was very surprised by what Harriet Lerner's book had to offer. Lerner explains that relationships are often stuck in patterns or "dances" and that these patterns repeat themselves again and again in times of anger. Lerner shows you how you can recognize and change your own patterns. Such changes lead to a greater understanding of self and healthier relationships. This book can really help you to see things in a new light.
