It provides a conceptual framework and practicaladvice on the clinical issues of working with anger, including casestudy examples, service user perspective, a philosophical anddevelopmental underpinning, and suggested ways of preventing angerdevelopment. Ways of working with anger are illustrated,including: * Group-based treatments * Individual treatment * Working with adults * Working with children and adolescents * Working with families * Gender and anger * Methods of evaluating anger programmes This practical volume will enable clinicians to set up, run andevaluate their own anger programmes using the constructivistapproach.
