All The Rage
Jewish Book Week 2025
| Speaker | Josh Cohen |
|---|---|
| Chair | Marina Benjamin |
Psychoanalyst Josh Cohen discusses his book, ‘All the Rage’, in which he argues that anger is not an emotion to suppress but a fundamental force shaping both our personal relationships and the wider world.
Anger permeates our lives, from the intensity of road rage to the fervour of political protest, manifesting physically and sometimes erupting into violence. How should we understand this powerful emotion—and can it ever serve a constructive purpose? Drawing on patient case studies, neuropsychology, literature, philosophy, and recent political events, Josh Cohen explores the many facets of anger and its role in our lives. In conversation with writer Marina Benjamin.
