Autorenporträt
Gary Kirby knows about violence and abuse in intimate relationships. He grew up in a home filled with it, and grew up to become an angry adult. He spent much of his life trying to discover why he was so angry. That journey led him to an Anger Management program, which began the healing process and allowed him the opportunity to help others by first volunteering and then being hired to facilitate and co-facilitate these anger management programs with a local agency. Besides working with batterers in these programs, he was one of the first people hired, along with a psychologist, to get into some Junior High schools in Calgary, working with angry youth.His experiences and ongoing research have given him a unique perspective on the root causes of violence and abuse. His focus is now on expanding society's understanding of violence and abuse, hoping this will provide keys to new and more effective ways of dealing with violence and abuse in our society.
