Anger

"Keith Ashford skillfully and courageously reaches right into the fire burning inside us that all too often rages unattended, out of control, or is poorly managed at best. Pitching his tent on the lip of the volcano, Ashford joins a precious few-Robert Bly, James Hillman, Ram Dass, and Thich Nhat Hanh among them-who have peered into this paradoxically dark yet fiery zone of the male psyche, reporting back with healing insight, compassion, chutzpah, and humour. This book offers wise counsel, practical advice, and safe passage for men and women through a particularly perilous and forbidding region of our inner landscape. A necessary journey has now become an easier, more illuminating one."
Dr. Michael Hurley, Royal Military College of Canada

"Male anger is a weapon of mass destruction. It wounds the folks around the angry man-at work, at home, or in the community-as well as the man himself. In Anger, Keith Ashford provides an intelligent meditation on male anger, taking you to places in your psyche that you might not expect. Indeed, you may even find your anger rising, if you are expecting a quick, easy solution to the anger that so often captures you, for although Ashford presents anger as relatively simple stuff, he knows it's also complicating, and requires this fascinating journey to start to untangle."
Harvey Schachter, "Managing Books" columnist, The Globe and Mail

"This is a very dangerous book. If you take Keith Ashford's wisdom and do your homework, you will never be the same. This practical, real, and imaginative manual for discovering, accepting, and dancing the anger that is imbedded in most of our male lives can open doors to freedoms we never imagined or dared ask for. Bravo. Every male over twenty should read this and go to bed with it every night until he 'gets it' "
