Unnesseh: I give a lot of feedback to people who send me things, friends of mine. When someone writes back, this book's awful, my first reaction is Anger. She says she has an emotional reaction to it, but her editor is always right. Unnessehs: We have to come from different points of view. It can't be mine or yours; you have to help me with that point of view.
Philosopher Agnes Callard of the University of Chicago talks with EconTalk host Russ Roberts about anger. Is anger something we should vilify and strive to eradicate in ourselves? Or should we accept it as a necessary and appropriate human emotion? Callard takes a fresh look at anger and has much to say about jealousy, desire, and forgiveness as well.
