Have you ever been so angry you literally saw red? Was there ever a time you were so furious, but you couldn’t tell why? Would your life be improved if you could harness your rage for good, instead of rampant destruction?

In today's episode of "Why It Works," Dr. David Lieberman, award-winning author and ­internationally recognized leader in the fields of ­human be­hav­ior and interpersonal relationships reveals some of the hidden mechanisms behind why Anger works. We explore how aggressive venting of your anger is bad for your health, the underlying mechanism behind road rage, and the illusion of control that accompanies anger.
