I am pleased to share with you a new publication, “Channeling Anger and Hate for Protecting Human Life,” which has been published in a book entitled Perspectives on Hate edited by Robert Sternberg, a distinguished psychologist and former president of the American Psychological Association (who in the past was the author of a theory of love which I found enormously helpful in my clinical work with couples).
My essay on treating emotionally based violence, including in tumultuous situations where there are actual threats of weapons and blows, is based on a concept of the healthfulness and legitimacy of angry and violent feelings for us human beings but at the same time they must be anchored by a clear commitment to non-violence in action.
The essay can be found here.
