Taking a relational approach to anger and rage, the book presents a positive view of human nature, supported by recent research findings and illustrated with case studies, with individuals trusted to be essentially pro-social.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRather than promoting strategies and techniques for eradicating anger, Sue Parker Hall, puts forward an approach which seeks to not only work with, but to differentiate between, anger and rage. Anger and rage are constructed as entirely different phenomena, originating at different developmental stages, having different functions and relational needs and requiring different aspects of relationship in the therapeutic process.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFurther areas of discussion include:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe positive aspects of anger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003epractitioner protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe therapeutic implications of working with both anger and rage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book will p\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e'Anger and rage are typically presented as problems by the person concerned and those in close relationship with them.
