Inspired by Dr. Albert Ellis’ theory of Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), Dr. Hauck provides a straight-forward approach to explaining the causes of anger while showing readers how to overcome their anger and frustration without needless technical jargon. Dr. Hauck begins by providing a convincing rationale for why it is helpful to give up anger, showing how it leads to problematic issues such as physical sickness, decreased problem-solving abilities, divorce, and child abuse.

Dr. Ellis shows that being tolerant is a deliberate, rational choice anyone can make — for the good of themselves and the world.
