Emotional Intelligence. Why It May Matter More Than IQ

American psychologist and acknowledged expert in emotional intelligence Daniel Goleman asserts that our emotions play a much bigger role in achieving success in family and work than commonly believed.

But what is "emotional intelligence"? Can it be measured? What distinguishes "ordinary" intelligence from "emotional" intelligence and why do those with the former often give way to those with the latter? How can one learn to cope with despondency, anger, impulsiveness, depression, and become more successful? The author discusses all of this in detail. The updated edition in Russian includes annotations and comments from the author.

For those who want to learn to control emotional impulses, discern the hidden feelings of others, and establish relationships.

This book will be useful for students, teachers, parents, and anyone interested in psychological issues related to family and career.
