THE CURE FOR UNJUST ANGER
By
John Downame
(abridged by Brian G. Hedges)
Reformation Heritage Books. 126 pages. £7.99
ISBN 978 1 601 787 675

If anger regularly gets the better of you and you ‘lose it’ to your shame and others’ pain, here is a little book you should read. An abridged, easy-to-read version of a spiritual classic from Shakespeare’s time bringing Puritan teaching right into our 21st-century world.

Why read a Puritan book on anger? Because people like Downame were clever analysts of the human psyche long before Freud came along, and their insights are still sharp and true. If you want to understand your own emotional life from a Biblical perspective and address the problem of anger effectively, this will help you.
