Anger is one of the most powerful emotions experienced by humankind. What may erupt in a moment of frustration could have simmered quietly within us for years, only to explode with consequences that can change lives. From personal relationships to global conflicts, anger has shaped the course of human history. Today, online platforms reward outrage and social media feeds are filled with content designed to inflame emotions. It is not without reason that 'rage bait' was named the Oxford English Dictionary's Word of the Year 2025.
In Anger: Why We Get Angry and How We Should Respond to Provocation, the author takes readers on a reflective journey into the nature of anger-what triggers it, why it overwhelms us, and how it can both harm and transform us. She examines how this emotion has been analysed in spiritual teachings, and by philosophers and thinkers belonging to various cultures and traditions around the world. In his Foreword, His Holiness the Dalai Lama says that anger should not be seen as purely destructive or as something to be feared. The book shows readers how to accept anger, and provides insights into how its negative effects can be blunted for it to be used constructively.
