When I first read the title of this book, images of angry people with bulging forehead veins came to mind, but really this book is for everyone. Anger and frustration are part of the human condition - to ignore it is wrong and to indulge it is wrong too - so what can we do? This book attempts to tell you.

Overall this book was pretty good but obvious - lacking philosophical depth. I liked the parables and quotes from Buddhist teachers, but I didn't find the author's own experiences very compelling. The chapter on how to handle angry people was, I thought, the weakest in this regard. e.g., see things from their perspective - don't jump to conclusions - try not to get angry back. Not bad messages but really - who doesn't know these things? I would have appreciated more Buddhist philosophy and less weekend-seminar style anger management.

The narrator talked slowly and sometimes his accents sounded funny but he was not terrible.

Overall not bad. Helpful to an extent - especially if you are prone to anger or frustration.

Talking about being angry? Well this book will make you stop and think: Being Angry - is it worth it? nice book, a good approach overcoming anger and the narrator's soothing voice is another plus-plus. Easy five stars!

Since this is a work book for group activities, I found it frustrating to try and visualize the exercises.

It is truly excellent. Helped me 1) calm down, 2) laugh more at situations, and 3) roll with the flow. Worth the price.

A very good book, well narrated. I would recommend this. Thanks to Audible for having such great books in store

If you do not know much about, or a little about Budhism, then this is a good read/listen. If you have anger issues, then this also is a good choice. I was interested in Budhism and Anger Management this is why I purchased this audio book. I found the Voice of the Narration Artist kept me interested and the material inside not to much to swallow. It definately will keep me on the persuit of more titles that involve Budhist teachings. This audio book should not be taken in place of therapy, as the author noted several times in the book. Just as a starting point on a long journey of self discovery and teachings of the Budah.

He doesn't get to the heart of it. Anger is just an emotion, you need to be the witness and the book lacks that teaching. I don't think it should be labeled Zen. That said its a good starter book, but honestly not one I would recommend as a self help or spiritual guide.

yes

yes

no

no

Although the zen method for handling anger was presented the actual application seemed to be missing.It would be better to give actual ways to use this method.
