Editorial Reviews
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. It contains an inspirational message for all women, regardless of their age, background, or life experience. 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
The Perennial Audio Bestseller from Harriet Lerner, Ph.D.

"Anger is a signal and one worth listening to" writes Dr. Harriet Lerner, in her renowned classic that has transformed the lives of millions. While anger deserves our attention and respect, women still learn to silence our anger, to deny it entirely, or to vent it in a way that leaves us feeling helpless and powerless.

In this vivid, engaging and eminently wise work, Dr. Lerner teaches women to identify the true sources of anger and to use anger as a powerful vehicle for creating meaningful and lasting change. The challenge of anger is at the heart of our struggle with intimacy, self-esteem, and joy. The Dance of Anger has inspired more "You changed my life" stories from both women and men than perhaps any other bestseller on the American scene today.

Read by the author on two cassettes.

The counselor's favorite book

I was going to a counselor trying to wade through the emotions that were crippling me. How can such strong emotions create such paralysis? I found myself writing down almost every word she said. Where did she get such fresh truth that I needed? I asked her, "Can you recommend a book that will help me? For instance (pointing to the notes I was scribbling as she spoke) where did you get this information?" The Dance of Anger, by Harriet Lerner was her response. I left the session, went to the bookstore and found it! $10 at the time--a paperback dynamo full of challenges to change the Dance! Warning: it's true. You change the dance and you're in for a fight--but that fight might save your life.

extremely insightful book

The Dance of Anger took me by surprise with its clear descriptions of anger in women and its causes, manifestations, and consequences when not handled in a healthy manner. This is a book to which all women can relate and that I believe may even benefit many men to read. I almost drained my highlighter marking all of the lines I wanted to remember and revisit.

Most important book I've ever read

Dance of Anger is the most important book I've ever read in my life. It helped me get through a very challenging time, and I read it again every once in a while just to revisit its important lessons. If you have anger, read this book!

This book has changed my life and the way I now see all of my relationships. The first chapter however is a little bit of history and to me seemed a little "pro-women". Once you get through that chapter the rest of the book is wonderful. Easy example and serious is explained and can be interpreted into your own life. It really opened my eyes in a lot of areas of my life. It actually showed me that what I thought was other emotions was actually anger and that the patterns I was in were causing it. I have re-read the entire book (minus the first chapter) twice now, and highlighted important thoughts, example for a refresher when needed! I would recommend this book and have actually bought a few friends there own copies to help them! If you haven't read it, I would say start reading now! I know the first time I read it I couldn't put it down! Life changing read!!!!

so-so

was just a bunch of stories and told me nothing I didn't know already. It was okay as a one time read but not something you can read over and over. Might be good for some but I wasn't impressed.
