Going Postal: Rage, Murder, and Rebellion: From Reagan's Workplaces to Clinton's Columbine and Beyond18 reviews
Mark Ames

Soft Skull Press, 2005

Original and provocative analysis
When you crack open a book entitled "Going Postal," you don't expect to start reading about the antebellum South. But Ames starts by transporting us back in time in service of his provocative theme - that today's rage murders in workplaces and schools are contemporary forms of slave rebellion, indeed the only possible form of rebellion in a society as decollectivized and militarized as the modern ...
  
  











  



  
Life After Life: A Story of Rage and Redemption12 reviews
Evans Hopkins

Free Press, 2005

MUST READ DOESN'T SAY ENOUGH!!!!
This book is essential for anyone who agrees with the idea that the leaders of the Civil Rights movement didn't do all the work. Evans Hopkins writes in gripping prose about his life story, and is among the first to shed light on the Panthers from a first hand comrade point of view. The book not only is insightful but inspiration. It brings back to light the struggles of a time all but ...
  
  











  



  
Kafka Was the Rage: A Greenwich Village Memoir13 reviews
Anatole Broyard

Clarkson Potter, 1993

A delightful memoir of post-war Greenwich Village
One brilliantly sunny day in July, I decided to head out to the lake to bask in the sun and read. Unforuntately, I realized halfway there that I hadn't bought anything to read. So, I trotted over to my local used bookstore and began browsing their recent acquisition table. This little volume immediately gained my attention. It looked like fun, it looked like it would be a quick read, and it ...
  
  











  



  
Rage To Survive17 reviews
Etta James, David Ritz

Da Capo Press, 1998

Understanding Etta James
If you're going to see Etta, read this book first. It will put some perspective on where this Diva has come from and help you understand some of her stage comments. To make your experience finer, read it while listening to "Her Best-the Chess 50th Anniversary Collection" and her newest CD "Roll On". It's an honest and fresh read, very revealing and very scary as to how she survived racism, drug ...

Elder Rage, or Take My Father... Please!: How to Survive Caring for Aging Parents276 reviews
Jacqueline Marcell

Impressive Press, 2001

Thank you for a WONDERFUL book. Both entertaining AND full of valuable information.
I wish to extend a huge thank you to Jacqueline for writing this book! My mother-in-law had been diagnosed with dementia and had progressed to point where we felt it was no longer safe to allow her to continue to live alone. Our problem was that she was fighting us "tooth and nail" at every turn. She did not realize the scope of her problem. She felt she merely could not remember things once ...

Combating Air Rage10 reviews
Ted Celentino

1st Books Library, 2001

A Rave Review!
I highly recommend this book for any traveler. Whether you travel infrequently, or are an extreme traveler ("extremie"), you will find this book as humorous as it is enlightening. The author draws on years of experience, and gives specifics about various airports visited and common pitfalls dealing with luggage, flight confirmations and "passenger etiquette" that will give you the tools to stand ...
  
  











  



  
All the Rage: The Boondocks Past and Present (Boondocks)12 reviews
Aaron Mcgruder

Three Rivers Press, 2007

final installment
This is the final installment of McGruder's Boondocks comic strip. It's a bit weaker than the other two large volumes, but still very strong. There were some strips from the first collections scattered throughout, and not necessarily in order. That threw me off here and there. There's a large section of articles and interviews which are quite interesting. And finally there is an anticlimatic ...
  
  











  



  
Honku: The Zen Antidote to Road Rage18 reviews
Aaron Naparstek

Villard, 2003

The Zen of driving
After author Aaron Naparstek had a brush with danger when confronting a honking driver, he found a way to sublimate the frustration and anger of traffic annoyances into calming poetry. Through the use of the 5-7-5 syllable pattern of haiku, he has now brought enlightenment and laughter to the topics of road rage, traffic gridlock, high fuel prices, lack of parking, and many other automotive ...

A Personal Revival Shared
Nancy Kaltenberger retells her own personal story with honest candor in a humble, down-to-earth and friendly tone in "Hope When The River Rages." A book geared toward "believers," each chapter is begun with a verse from the Bible and ends in a prayer. Also at the end of each chapter, in a section called "A Little Deeper," there are relevant Bible verses, questions readers are to ask ...
  
  











  



  
Transforming Anger: The HeartMath Solution for Letting Go of Rage, Frustration, and Irritation6 reviews
Doc Childre, Deborah Rozman

New Harbinger Publications, 2003

No more raging maniac
I am so thankful that I found this book. I had fallen into a terrible pattern of screaming uncontrollably at my kids and then later having to apologize. My kids were afraid of me and how I would react. This book made sense to me from page one. Every page has been an "Ah-ha" moment of how I have conditioned my heart and mind to respond with anger. It has been so worth the money. I am now using the ...

Noise Rage5 reviews
William T. Hennessy

Neshui Pub, 2004

Graphic detail! Great Book!
A book for those who truly understand what it's like to live on the dark underside of life. Hennessy's graphic details of the inner turmoil facing his characters exhibits a rare understanding of what it's like to be pushed to the very edge of madness, live in "normal" society and not reside in a mental institution or prison. Hennessy is truly a master of this genre. Only in his imagination could ...

Thrilling, Fast Moving and Exciting
Quite a story!!!! Author hit all the right buttons with this one. Captured my attention immediately. Hope to see more from Beecher in the future.

Emptiness Surrounded With Rage4 reviews
Linda Aceto

BookSurge Publishing, 2006

This should stop the Whiners!!!
"Gritty" describes it ... and so does "progress." What really hit home with me was what I experienced about myself: I overrate both my guilt and my effect. There are some things that happened that really weren't my fault! But seeiung that these things don't happen again? That is all on me. Linda is in that wonderful place! So, if you think you had it rough, dig in ... some damn ride!!!
  
  











  



  
Air Rage: Crisis in the Skies6 reviews
Anonymous, Andrew R. Thomas

Prometheus Books, 2001

Should be required reading . . .
This is one scary book. If you have any intention of flying anywhere in the next few years, you owe it to yourself to read this book first. It won't increase your comfort level at all, but it will leave you with a sense of being forewarned, just in case . . . I wouldn't recommend reading it just before bedtime, however, as it might prompt unhappy dreams. As an American, I found the most ...
  
  











  



  
A Rage for Justice: The Passion and Politics of Phillip Burton5 reviews
John Jacobs

University of California Press, 1997

Smashing history of Congress and Phil Burton
John Jacobs has done a spectacular job of capturing and relating the career of Congressman Phil Burton, a swaggering, ruthless liberal from San Francisco who came within one vote of serving as House majority leader in 1976. For anyone who wants to understand the history of the contemporary Congress, they need only read "A Rage For Justice," and "The Ambition and the Power," by John Barry, ...

All the Rage: The Story of Gay Visibility in America4 reviews
Suzanna Danuta Walters

University Of Chicago Press, 2001

All the Rage is All the Rave!
Author Suzanna Danuta Walters chronciles the history of gay visibility in America excellently in this book! Looking at it from a variety of perspectives: Cinema, Television, Advertising (Marketing)and her own personal accounts of being a lesbian parent. While the debate rages on over assimilation, equal rights and the unigueness of gay culture, I feel that the author has done an excellent job ...
