One system is fast, intuitive and emotional; the other is slower, more deliberative and more logical. Kahneman exposes the extraordinary capabilities-and also the faults and biases-of fast thinking and reveals the pervasive influence of intuitive impressions on our thoughts and behaviour.

Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money.

Intelligence is usually seen as the ability to think and learn, but in a rapidly changing world, there's another set of cognitive skills that might matter more: the ability to rethink and unlearn. In recent months, the pandemic has forced us all to reevaluate our assumptions about health and safety and multiple acts of police brutality have challenged most of us to reconsider our responsibility for fighting racism. Yet in our daily lives, too many of us still favor the comfort of conviction over the discomfort of doubt.

Busy Mangers to Effective Managers

Publisher's Summary
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.
Critic Reviews
“A thoughtfully written, persuasive account explaining emotional intelligence and why it can be crucial to your career.” (USA Today)
“Good news to the employee looking for advancement [and] a wake-up call to organizations and corporations.” (The Christian Science Monitor)

The best book on emotions
It won't give you specific ways to handle your emotions but it will help you understand the nature of the problems you face. how you decide to use the knowledge is up to you. i think cognitive behavioral therapy can fit right in after reading this book. this books does not tell you the exact steps to becoming more mature emotionally. you need additonal reading. look into cbt books

Science text book
Is a scientific text book on emotions.. On what part of the brain leads to what emotions. Science is more overpowering and overwhelming than the take on emotions themselves.. Almost like an endless research paper being read out, not for the average reader who might pick this to understand how to get more emotionally intelligent.. Possibly for a student in psychology.

Good book. Not so as audiobook.
I was looking forward to this book after hearing an interview with the author, Daniel Goleman. I was pleased enough with his narration of the Preface or Introduction. However, when the main narrator started Part One, I found hit tone and cadence very robotic sounding. It was such a distraction and annoyance that I stopped listening after the first chapter. I ended up returning the audiobook. Disappointing.

Narrator too Robotic
Absolutely struggled to finish. Forced myself to out of sheer will. Most memorable moment was when it was over. First reason I did not enjoy it is that the narrator was extremely robotic and monotone. For a book about emotional intelligence, the narrator read with zero emotion. which made it difficult to stay with. The next reason I did not enjoy it is that it was not what I expected. I was looking for a book about emotional intelligence as it applies to leaders, CEOs, business relationships, etc...and this book was not that. I would not recommend this book to anyone else.

Looking back on my youth and reasons and examples of how things affected my emotional intelligence does nothing for me. I really didn't get much out of this book, except many wasted hours and the expense of this book. More drivel I could have done without.

I don’t think I will be able to finish the audio book though as the narration is unpleasant to listen to.

bad bad bad read..
If not dead already from boredom, you'll certainly be no more 'emotionally intelligent' reading/listening to this tome.
Long winded, self-congratulatory and tons of tedious human brain physiology trivia and minutiae listing various emotional impairments and what not.
You could sum the whole thing up by saying 'along with IQ, being emotionally mature is important'.

A must listen to
I wish I had listened to this book earlier in life or that this topic was more spoken of and better understood in our society. The book has some great insights into self awareness and empathy. I think it is a book that you will get something out of every time you listen to it as I think it is one of those books you can listen to a few times throughout life. Certainly made me very interested in learning more on the topic. Highly recommend. I certainly got a lot more than I expected out of the book.

Lots of theory, no practice
13 hrs on how massively important emotional intelligence is. Well, if I didn't think it was important I wouldn't pick this book, would I?
I was looking for a practical advice but there was too little of it.

Dull and bad narration
The narration is very robotic.
The content is very dry and academic, I couldn’t get through it

Brilliant
Every early childhood educator must read this!
It’s a great tool for educators of all ages, psychologists and patents. Also a great way to help people who are dealing with anxiety and depression.
Brilliant work!

What a shame
Amazing content about emotional intelligence delivered by what sounded like a computer/machine voice. Made it very hard to stay interested

Great content, deadpan delivery
Reads like an American high school science film you fell asleep to. Not enough vibrancy in the delivery, so matter of fact it lost novelty in the joy of discovery.
