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

Any additional comments?

The narration was too fast, particularly where concepts were explained, and more time would've been helpful to try to process the information. Even when I tried to slow down the speed of the narration, there was an echo, so that was deterring. It would've been more helpful if the narration was slower.

The reader has a very monotone voice however the content of the book is put into a real world context. Some excellent pointers to reader further and put into action in my own life. I recommend this for anyone interested in how emotional intelligence can improve overall well-being and interactions within the community.

Very educational

The content of the book is excellent, however, many times thought the recording, it will skip or fast forward and I found that extremely frustrating and disappointing. I will buy the actual book and read it to make up for the parts missed.

Amazing contente. Sloopy recording.
