Data suggests that emotional intelligence is a much better predictor of success than academic intelligence in various aspects of life. This was one of the first books to comprehensively review the research, insights and implications of emotional intelligence. The book was organized into 5 parts on the emotional brain, emotional intelligence, applications, societal influences and emotional literacy. In this summary, we’ve consolidated the insights into 4 sections to explain the biology and neurology behind emotions, the dangers of emotional illiteracy, and how to develop emotional intelligence for better outcomes.
