AZMAZON - There was a time when IQ was considered the leading determinant of success. In this fascinating book, based on brain and behavioural research, Daniel Goleman argues that our IQ- idolising view of intelligence is far too narrow. Instead, Goleman makes the case for "emotional intelligence" being the strongest indicator of human success. He defines emotional intelligence in terms of self-awareness, altruism, personal motivation, empathy and the ability to love and be loved by friends, partners, and family members. People who possess high emotional intelligence are the people who truly succeed in work as well as play, building flourishing careers and lasting, meaningful relationships. Because emotional intelligence isn't fixed at birth, Goleman outlines how adults as well as parents of young children can sow the seeds. no reviews | add a review
Amazon.com (ISBN 055309503X, Hardcover)The Western cultures esteem analytical skills measured by IQ tests: but there is clearly more to success and happiness, even in technological societies, than IQ alone. Goleman has written one of the best books on the nature and importance of other kinds of intelligence besides our perhaps overly beloved IQ.

Weiterhin interessant fand ich im Buch den Exkurs zur Neurobiologie.
Wissenschaftlich gesehen ist das Buch aber eine Katastrophe! Jedem Unterkapitel gehen irrelevante Kurzgeschichten vor, die höchstens zur Unterhaltung taugen. Wenn Waffengebrauch beschrieben wird, wird grundsätzlich das genaue Kaliber mit angegeben. Goleman ist kein Wissenschaftler, sondern Journalist, der auf eine große Auflage aus ist.
Des Weiteren ist es sehr Redundant und könnte erheblich gekürzt werden. Je weiter ich im Lesen fortschritt, kam mir das Geschriebene lang gezogen und teilweise wie reiner Füllstoff vor.

Ich empfehle den an diesem Thema Interessierten, sich nach einem anderen Buch umzusehen.
