"At the age of 3, Steven Stosny was rushed to a hospital emergency room with a roof shingle lodged in his skull. In a burst of angry rage, his father had thrown it at Stosny after the toddler poked a stick into wall plaster that was still damp. Along with a permanent hole in his head, Stosny was left with a vivid experience of the deadly potential of uncontrolled anger. Today [2005], the 55-year-old Stosny--a Ph.D. and clinical psychologist practicing in the Washington, D.C. area--has become a multimedia guru of anger." (PSYCHOLOGY TODAY) This article discusses anger management and relates Stosny's expertise "in defusing high-voltage tempers. His insight: Self-love is more powerful than self-control."
