Aging Angry

Making Peace with Rage

Beschreibung

In Aging Angry: Making Peace with Rage, Amanda Smith Barusch argues that now, more than ever, it is time for older adults to turn toward anger rather than denying or avoiding it. By taking anger seriously, we can neutralize its destructive potential and harness its energy and wisdom for personal and social change. Barusch forcefully demonstrates that anger--and even rage--can be transformative.
