Thanks for bringing this book to my attention.

I noticed a couple of related books that look interesting, and am wondering if anyone here has experience with them:

Emotional Intelligence: 10th Anniversary Edition; Why It Can Matter More Than IQ
by Daniel Goleman (husband of Tara Bennett-Goleman)

Emotional Intelligence 2.0
by Travis Bradberry (Hardcover)

My time is limited, so I won't be reading all of them, mostly looking for a starting point to work on some of these issues. I have plenty of experience with mindfulness meditation, mostly looking to improve emotional and social competence.
