Marilee Strong

Based on five years of investigative reporting and research into forensic psychology and criminology,
Erased
presents an original profile of a widespread and previously unrecognized type of murder: not a 'hot-blooded', spur-of-the-moment crime of passion, as domestic homicide is commonly viewed, but a cold-blooded, carefully planned and methodically executed form of 'erasure'.
These crimes are often committed by men with no criminal record or history of violence whatsoever, men leading functional and often successful lives until the moment they kill the women, and sometimes children, they claimed to love. A surprising number go on to kill a second or even third wife or girlfriend, often in exactly the same way.
In more than fifty chilling case studies, Marilee Strong examines the strange and complex psychology that drives these killers - from the murder a century ago that inspired the novel

A nationally recognized Cornell psychologist presents his clinically proven program to help you break the generational intergenerational cycle of anger for good.
Getting Control of Your Anger

Focusing on breaking the cycle of anger, Dr Allan helps you discover the reasons for your anger, find more constructive ways to get your core needs met, and break the cycle by avoiding passing destructive patterns along to your children.
Already successfully taught to over 10,000 people, Dr Allan's 3-step program gets to the source of anger: step one identifies the "hooks" - good reasons to get angry - and how to avoid them; step two identifies the "need" that is causing the anger; and step three teaches you how to fill the need.

Gael Lindenfield

Anger is a natural emotional response to threat, hurt, frustration and loss. It can be a survival tool, as a vital means of releasing a build-up of emotional pressure. But anger is also a dangerous force. Uncontrolled fury can lead to rash words, violence and destructiveness, while repressed rage can result in bitterness, stress, misery and guilt. Both extremes can damage health. Gael Lindenfield explains the effects of anger on our minds and bodies, and suggests ways of dealing both with our own anger and that of other people.

Sexual harassment, child abuse, incest, rape, murder, war--it's impossible today to hear a news report and "not" be informed of violent acts perpetrated by men. Acknowledging that there are no easy answers to the problem of male violence--particularly in a world that seems to thrive on aggression and physical force--"Men's Work" reaches straight to its root causes. In his ground-breaking work, author Paul Kivel helps men confront the political, social, and personal forces that generate and reward misogyny, hatred, anger, and violent behavior. Combining years of personal study and reflection with his work with men in the Oakland Men's Project, "Men's Work" presents an innovative and workable approach to stopping male violence. Kivel shows men how to reclaim the power and responsibility needed to unlearn the lessons of control and aggression. Paul Kivel is a nationally known expert on men's issues.

It speaks to those who often find themselves saying and doing things they later regret. It will help the reader understand why such behaviour occurs and what can be done to prevent it. Like all the "Overcoming" guides it takes a positive approach for which the long-term goal in this case is lasting 'good temper' and also looks at how best to handle situations which would tax even the most good-natured person!

It's been reported that around seven per cent of adults may suffer from a problem called intermittent explosive disorder (IED) during their lives. This disorder involves episodes of rage so intense that relationships, jobs, property and even lives can be lost in a single outburst. IED sufferers often report that they even lose conscious awareness of their behaviour during these episodes. Obviously anyone who is stricken with diagnosable IED or even subclincial fits of rage needs help, and they need it as soon as possible. Unique in its genre, this much-needed book breaks down rage generally into three types: survival, impotent and abandonment or rejection rage. In the first type, the angry individual's behaviour is triggered by a sense of danger or threat; in the second, by a feeling of helplessness; and the third type is triggered by a fear of losing a cherished relationship. After a brief discussion of the brain and how it functions ...
