Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
Redford ( The Trusting Heart ) and Virginia Williams ( Surrealism, Quantum Philosophy and World War I ), husband and wife, explain the interplay of psychology and medicine in this instructive book. Elaborating on Redford Williams's earlier work, which linked excess hostility to life-threatening illness, especially heart disease, they present new scientific findings as well as draw on their own experiences in their more than 30 years together. A questionnaire and other exercises are provided to help readers locate their hostility level and identify what types of things "set them off." Finally, the authors outline 17 strategies to control anger. These include meditation, laughing at oneself, assertiveness, caring for a pet and performing community service. A deft balance of research and intuitive perceptions. Author tour.

From Library Journal
This clearly written book is a continuation and elaboration of Redford Williams's earlier work, The Trusting Heart (Times Bks., 1989), in which he described recent scientific evidence linking hostile thinking and behavior to cardiovascular risk. In Anger Kills , the authors convincingly describe the damage that cynicism, anger, and aggression can do to personal health and to interpersonal relationships. A brief "hostility" questionnaire is followed by 17 proven techniques for changing these insidiously deleterious personality traits. The strategies are straightforward and practical. Follow even some of them and, at the least, you will improve the quality of your relationships. You may even prolong your life. A promotional tour should ensure high demand. Highly recommended for public libraries and wherever interest warrants.
