| Summary |
This book looks at current knowledge about emotional intelligence (EI) with the goal of translating it into practical recommendations in work, school, social, and psychological contexts. The authors discuss what is (and what isn't) EI, why the concept has such appeal today, how EI develops, and the usefulness of EI in the real world--in school curricula, the workplace, and treatment of psychological dysfunction |
