About this listen

This program features a new introduction read by Daniel Goleman and a bonus dialogue between the author and Jon Kabat-Zinn.

It is the tenth anniversary since the first publication of Daniel Goleman's groundbreaking bestseller, Emotional Intelligence, which maps the territory where IQ meets EQ, where we apply what we know to how we live. Spending over a year on the New York Times bestseller list, Emotional Intelligence provided the evidence for what many successful people already knew: being smart isn't just a matter of mastering facts; it's a matter of mastering your own emotions and understanding the emotions of the people around you.

Critic reviews

"Impressive in its scope and depth, staggering in its implications." (Jon Kabat-Zinn, Ph.D., author of Wherever You Go, There You Are)

For such interesting content - it is a shame the person reading it feels the need to emulate a robot. Occasionally there are sound glitches where it sounds like the tape is getting tangled - not sure what caused that but it happens a couple of times.

The ideas in this book should be taught to every child and embedded in parenting and educational settings. Seminal piece of our time

A MUST read

very good explaination about our brains and our emotions and why we think the way we do. The narrative frequently uses good examples to explain what might be rather dry subject matter without losing us too much. Yes it is complex stuff but i think it gets to the heart of why we are the way we are (especially under stress) better than anything else I've read or heard.
One off point - the narrator sounds like a computer, and once you get that thought into your head all you can picture is Stephen Hawking's electronic voice machine bleeping out words with the same monotone noise '..see apendix A' is probably not best read out even though it might be printed in the book. And the music at the end of each chapter drowns out what is being said for about 2 minutes. I think if I was the author I'd get this re-done. Other than that, top quality content :)

good, but who narrated this? Stephen Hawking?

interesting but heavy and long. took me good part of the year to get through this .

the topics are discussed really well with good use of examples. this makes up for the boring robot sounding narration that alot of these kind of academic books come with

insightful but long

great book, really interesting & informative. I wasn't keen on the music within the audio book though.
Do listen to the end credit last chapter as that conversation I found a really good conclusion to the book with some really good takeaways.

Very Interesting!

Neurological activity explanations were interesting. A bit too descriptive and not enough practical takeaway and implementation advice for me. But overall good.

Explanations of neurological mechanics are very interesting.

Love it, but at times it was very technical, would like better if the reader was more dramatic in his reading.
