A classic

Few self-help books stick around this long. This one has for good reason. I consider myself to be a pretty psychologically minded person. My husband and I spend long hours trying to understand ourselves and others. This book helped me to understand many of the issues I was dealing with with my parents. It discusses the flip side of depression--anger. This was an important topic for me to understand better and the author explains it well. I often recommend this book to my friends.

Still relevant today!

I bought this book at the recommendation of my therapist. Once I started reading this, I wondered, why? Why did she recommend this? I never thought of myself as "angry", however as I kept reading I realized the book is about most women I know, including myself, who constantly habor the same feelings and resentments, day after day, month after month - the dance - with no resolution in sight. I recommend this book to anyone - man or woman - who feels stuck in a rut in a personal relationship, ANY personal relationship, with no growth or maturation in sight. It will lead you to understand that you are only responsible for yourself and that you cannot change anyone else - whether you are concious of the fact that you are "hoping" for this change or not! Loved it!

The Cause of Your Anger

Learn to listen to your own anger and figure out the real cause behind it. You will learn more about yourself in the process.

Insightful

Dr. Lerner provides incredible insight into how to listen to anger, address the real issues behind anger, how to identify interpersonal patterns (dances), and how to make courageous changes in those patterns when needed. I spent many hours contemplating the ideas introduced in this book, and feel that I have a clearer sense of myself as a result. I have seen tangible effects in my life. Highly recommended.

dance of intimacy

This book was very intersting and helped me to better understand relationships in a whole new different aspect. This was one of the best most informative books that I've read recently. Two thumbs up for me!
