Publisher's summary
In this vivid, engaging and eminently wise work, Dr. Lerner teaches women to identify the true sources of anger and to use anger as a powerful vehicle for creating meaningful and lasting change. The challenge of anger is at the heart of our struggle with intimacy, self-esteem, and joy. The Dance of Anger has inspired more "You changed my life" stories from both women and men than perhaps any other best seller on the American scene today.

-
Story
When The Dance of Deception was published, Lerner discovered that women were not eager to identify with the subject. "Well, I don't do deception" was a common response. We all "do deception", often with the intention to protect ourselves and the relationships we depend on. The Dance of Deception unravels the ways (and whys) that women show the false and hide the real - even to our own selves. We see how relationships are affected by lying and faking, by silence and pretending and by brave - but misguided - efforts to tell the truth.

Written from her dual perspective as a psychologist and a mother, Lerner brings us deeply personal tales that run the gamut from the hilarious to the heart-wrenching. From birth or adoption to the empty nest, The Mother Dance teaches the basic lessons of motherhood: that we are not in control of what happens to our children, that most of what we worry about doesn't happen, and that our children will love us with all our imperfections if we can do the same for them.

Story
Women are angry, and it isn’t hard to figure out why. We are underpaid and overworked. Too sensitive or not sensitive enough. Too dowdy or too made-up. Too big or too thin. Sluts or prudes. We are harassed, told we are asking for it, and asked if it would kill us to smile. Yes, yes it would. Contrary to the rhetoric of popular “self-help” and an entire lifetime of being told otherwise, our rage is one of the most important resources we have, our sharpest tool against both personal and political oppression.

The Dance of Anger
This is probably a must-read (or must-listen) for every woman. As with all things in psychology, it is the study of the obvious, except that human beings don't see the obvious when it is right in front of our noses. I found it remarkably helpful, and will listen to it again.
The book has different stories used as examples, and moves quickly. It is read by the author, who has a somewhat flat voice, but one could easily imagine sitting listening to her, a real person, giving a talk on this, and she often interjects comments which sound as if they are not in the script.
After I heard this, I felt buoyant, because she so clearly described feelings that I have struggled with, and gave straightforward suggestions for dealing with those feelings. She is not talking about mental illness here, but about the way women in our society do not deal with anger in a way that helps us to better negotiate our lives. I thought her ideas and presentation were terrific.

A classic and powerful self-help
There are well articulated themes in this book. The only unfortunate part is the narration.

Very useful
I found this book to be quite helpful in getting to the root of anger as well as proven techniques with real people. I look forward to listening again as I'm sure there will be more to gain from doing so. Narration a bit glitchy at some points through out which were annoying but not extreme. I recommend to all women who struggle to manage their anger & those rearing female children.

Excellent even though dated and focus for women
I found this to be really insightful and very helpful and a bit amusing. It sounds very dated but is extremely relevant. It is written on the perspective of empowering women and for modern man should be no problem.

Not the whole book
What did you like best about The Dance of Anger? What did you like least?
It is helpful, but does not cover the entire book. Her voice is ok, and she speaks slow enough, but once again, it does not cover the entire book
If you’ve listened to books by Harriet Lerner before, how does this one compare?
n/a
How did the narrator detract from the book?
.
Do you think The Dance of Anger needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?
a complete book
Any additional comments?
no
