Publisher's summary
When we think of our emotions, we often tend to see them as ways of reacting to the world. We feel happiness, sadness, anger, hope, and other emotions because we act on the world, and the world acts on us in turn, and we show our initial reactions by means of our instincts and feelings.
What if there was more than one way of understanding our emotions? What if we could learn to see our emotions as ways of changing the world for the better? What if we could learn to harness our emotions in order to improve our relationships with ourselves and with others?
This is the key idea to understanding the topic of emotional intelligence, the overarching term for the various skills and capabilities related to understanding our own emotions and those felt by other people. These skills and capabilities include identifying emotions, managing them, and using them to build better interpersonal relationships.
Emotional intelligence has been touted as the key to long-term success. It has been linked to the prospect of a more satisfying experience at work. It is one of the most critical factors in building more long-lasting and more satisfying romantic and/or sexual relationships. And it has been observed to have long-lasting effects on mental and physical health.
In this book, you'll learn about emotional intelligence and its most important applications. You'll learn why developing emotional intelligence is important for both the child and for the adult. You'll learn about the benefits of developing emotional intelligence. And you'll learn about various strategies for developing emotional intelligence that you can easily incorporate into your daily life.
It's never too late to better understand, work with, and manage your emotions, and you can start today - all you need to do is listen to this book.

As humans, we all need to belong. While modern social life can make even the best of us feel gawky, for roughly one in five of us, navigating its challenges is consistently overwhelming - an ongoing maze without an exit. Often unable to grasp social cues or master the skills and grace necessary for smooth interaction, we feel out of sync with those around us. Though individuals may recognize their awkward disposition, they rarely understand why they are like this.

In Ungifted, cognitive psychologist Scott Barry Kaufman - who was relegated to special education as a child - sets out to show that the way we interpret traditional metrics of intelligence is misguided. Kaufman explores the latest research in genetics and neuroscience, as well as evolutionary, developmental, social, positive, and cognitive psychology, to challenge the conventional wisdom about the childhood predictors of adult success. He reveals that there are many paths to greatness, and argues for a more holistic approach to achievement that takes into account each young person’s personal goals, individual psychology, and developmental trajectory.

Like a thumbprint, personality type provides an instant snapshot of a person's uniqueness.

It then explains what they mean for your success in school, at a job, in a career, and in your personal relationships.

Story
Onward tackles the problem of educator stress, and provides a practical framework for taking the burnout out of teaching. Stress is part of the job, but when 70 percent of teachers quit within their first five years because the stress is making them physically and mentally ill, things have gone too far. Unsurprisingly, these effects are highest in difficult-to-fill positions such as math, science, and foreign languages, and in urban areas and secondary classrooms - places where we need our teachers to be especially motivated and engaged.

The late Carl Rogers, founder of the humanistic psychology movement, revolutionized psychotherapy with his concept of "client-centered therapy." His influence has spanned decades, but that influence has become so much a part of mainstream psychology that the ingenious nature of his work has almost been forgotten. With a new introduction by Peter Kramer, this landmark book is a classic in its field and a must-listen for anyone interested in clinical psychology or personal growth.

The corporatisation of the contemporary university has sped up the clock. In The Slow Professor, Maggie Berg and Barbara K. Seeber discuss how adopting the principles of the Slow movement in academic life can counter this erosion of humanistic education. Focusing on the individual faculty member and his or her own professional practice, Berg and Seeber present both an analysis of the culture of speed in the academy and ways of alleviating stress while improving teaching, research, and collegiality.

Dead cats. That's the image many people conjure up when you mention curiosity. An image perpetuated by a dusty old proverb that has long represented the extent of our understanding of the term. This book might not put the proverb to rest, but it will flip it upside down: far from killing anything, curiosity breathes new life into almost everything it touches.

Our thought lives have incredible power over our mental, emotional, and even physical well-being. In fact, our thoughts can either limit us to what we believe we can do or release us to experience abilities well beyond our expectations. When we choose a mindset that extends our abilities rather than placing limits on ourselves, we will experience greater intellectual satisfaction, emotional control, and physical health. The only question is... how?

Great for promoting empathy!
Would you consider the audio edition of Emotional Intelligence to be better than the print version?
This book describes what emotional intelligence, how and why we use, its function in our daily lives, and and provides a strong argument as to why one should care about emotional intelligence.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
All in all, it is an argument for furthering empathy, but best of all it describes how to promote the development of emotional intelligence in children and in adults.As a therapist I see many people who come in with difficulties relating to people due to a deficit in these skills.
Any additional comments?
I would recommend this book as a handout to clients to promote psycho-education, to teachers, parents, and anyone who has to deal with the public. Perhaps if we all practiced a little more empathy, the world would be a better place!

A small book with a big package.
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
So much emphasis is placed on mental alacrity these days, that many of us have sacrificed the part of us that makes life worthwhile our feelings and how we use those feelings to relate to the people around us..
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
This is a great eye-opener, especially in the midst of this tumultuous year with seemingly everyone at each other's throats.
