Editorial Reviews:
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 being smart.

The best news is that "emotional literacy" is not fixed early in life. Every parent, every teacher, every business leader, and everyone interested in a more civil society, has a stake in this compelling vision of human possibility.

Summary: New post-IQ era opening book?
Comment: I was the typical all (almost always) A+ grade-getting student, and I thought this would guarantee a successful life... but it wasn't...
once in college, and 5 yrs after, when I saw my classmates (who usually would not get better than B or C's at school) were getting married and started having happy family life, and when i saw myself still majoring a 2nd and even a 3rd studies (and even oversees)... i realized that it was not all about IQ....
so 11yrs after i graduated high school, i run into this great book, I had wished I had read it 15 (or 20) yrs ago~!
I guess that the whole world education system has to switch to this new way of seeing human intelligence... and life...

Summary: The power of EQ
Comment: I enjoyed Emotional Intelligence and am fascinated by the EQ concept. However, I must say that I read another book (bought it after seeing it recommended here in another review) that I got more out of, The Emotional Intelligence Quick Book. I suppose the Quick Book is more recent, more straight to the quick and how to in what it teaches, and it includes an online emotional intelligence test which is really cool and a real bonus for just the price of a book.

Summary: What's your EQ?
Comment: There is a simple reason why most anyone should be interested in emotional intelligence: it plays a big role in what you achieve in life. Everyone has some idea of how smart they are, even if they've never taken an IQ test, but do you know what your EQ is? Who does? It's hard to know but books like Emotional Intelligence help shed some light on it. A must read.

Summary: Getting smart about your emotions
Comment: Conventional wisdom suggests that emotions can be stuffed into a little box when we don't want them to take control of our behavior. Experience suggests otherwise and Emotional Intelligence explains why. It also tells you why it's so important to have a grasp of your emotions and know what you're feeling when and why. It also talks about understanding the emotions of other people. A friend told me about this book long ago and I enjoyed reading it.

Summary: fascinating exploration
Comment: of the inner workings of how people think and what makes them do the things they do. A bit of a heady read, though.
