Summary:

The last several years have seen a significant increase in research on anger and its clinical treatment.

Treatments for Anger in Specific Populations provides information and instruction on empirically supported interventions for anger in various clinical contexts, including substance abuse, PTSD, the intellectually disabled, borderline personality disorder, children
