Everyone knows that high IQ is no guarantee of success, happiness, or virtue, but until Emotional Intelligence, we could only guess why. Daniel Goleman's brilliant report from the frontiers of psychology and neuroscience offers startling new insight into our "two minds"--the rational and the emotional--and how they together shape our destiny.
Through vivid examples, Goleman delineates the five crucial skills of emotional intelligence, and shows how they determine our success in relationships, work, and even our physical well-being. What emerges is an entirely new way to talk about...

Drawing on recent brain and behavioural research, Daniel Goleman demonstrates the factors at work when people of high IQ flounder and those of modest IQ do surprisingly well. He explains how emotional intelligence can be taught and nurtured.

Does IQ define our destiny? This work argues that our view of human intelligence is far too narrow, and that our emotions play major role in thought, decision making and individual success. It shows how emotional intelligence can be nurtured and strengthened in all of us.

Presents a synthesis of the findings in biology and brain science, revealing a fundamental discovery: we are designed for sociability, constantly engaged in a 'neural ballet' that connects us brain-to-brain with those around us. This work explains the surprising accuracy of first impressions, the basis of charisma and emotional power, and more.

This is a penetrating analysis of the ways in which we deceive ourselves. Daniel Goleman draws on evidence of all kinds - from brain function to social dynamics - to reveal how we distort our most intimate relationships and our day to day lives.

Do you want to be more successful at work? Do you want to improve your chances of promotion? Do you want to get on better with your colleagues? This work demonstrates that emotional intelligence at work matters twice as much as cognitive abilities such as IQ or technical expertise.

Bringing together ancient Buddhist wisdom and breakthroughs in a variety of fields from neuroscience to child development, this book offers fresh insights into how we can recognise and transform our destructive emotions. It tells where destructive emotions (craving, anger and delusion, known in Buddhism as the three poisons) come from.

For more than two decades, psychologist and journalist Daniel Goleman has been scouting the leading edge of the human sciences for what's new, surprising, and important. In 'Focus', he delves into the science of attention in all its varieties, presenting a long overdue discussion of this little-noticed and under-rated mental asset that matters enormously for how we navigate life.
