A Scientific Approach to Emotions -- Great Read!

I rarely ever write reviews, but I know how frustrating it can be to choose a book and not being able to weigh in other people's reading experiences before investing in one. I'm halfway through finishing this book, but I definitely have enjoyed reading it so far. I ordered this book without knowing that the author is actually one of the leading psychologists/journalists that drew attention to emotional intelligence in the behavioral sciences. He seamlessly weaves in scientific data and life tips in a way that provides thorough understanding of how important EQ is to various aspects of society, both in personal and professional environments, as well as how influential emotions are in a micro and macro level. If you are intrigued by the sciences and want to learn about emotions from this perspective, then this is the book for you.

Everything I needed

This book brakes everything down to the T. If you needEd an emotional awakening thins is your book. It proved that my way of living was way more rewarding than what I thought because I always thought IQ intelligent people lack emotion. Therefore missing out on the most important pasty’s of life

Outstanding work

I think this is one of the most important books written in the past decade. This is not a "self-help" book, but a presentation of data and Goleman's conclusions. Goleman has great communication skills and this book is very readable. Frankly, I envy his clear writing style. I recommend this book and the ones that follow to everyone. I wrote this review because I think the negative review listed is inaccurate and does the potential reader harm by steering him away from this important work.
