From an award-winning physician, health innovator, and former head of the Canadian Medical Association, a groundbreaking book that is both an examination of how anger evolves and outrage takes hold when we lose the belief that change is possible and a guide to how we find our way back, individually and together

If you’re holding this book, there’s a good chance something in your life isn’t sitting right. Maybe you’ve been carrying frustration that’s hard to explain, or watching someone close to you slowly drift into anger. Maybe conversations that used to feel easy now feel tense, or distant. You might feel like you’re walking on eggshells. Or maybe you’re the one others have started walking around. You may not call it outrage, but there is a rising sense that something important has been lost. Like trust. Even hope. If any of that feels familiar, you’re not alone. And you’re not wrong for feeling it.

Drawing from decades of personal and professional experiences, The Outrage Cure reveals how outrage distorts how we see the people around us, the systems we work in, and the stories we tell ourselves about who we are. The Outrage Cure doesn’t ask you to stop caring. It doesn’t ask you to stop being angry. Instead it asks practical questions: What happens when anger stops moving us forward? What do we do when outrage, once a response to harm, becomes the harm itself? In answering these questions, it invites you to examine what we’re carrying, how it’s shaping us, and what it might take to put it down. The world may deserve your outrage. But you deserve more than what it leaves you with.
