Social Intelligence

The New Science of Human Relationships
Book • 2007
In 'Social Intelligence: The New Science of Human Relationships,' Daniel Goleman explores the emerging science of social intelligence, highlighting how our daily interactions with others shape our brains and bodies.

The book delves into the biological impact of relationships, explaining how good relationships can act like vitamins and bad ones like poisons.

Goleman discusses topics such as emotional contagion, the accuracy of first impressions, charisma, sexual attraction, and the detection of lies.

He also examines the 'dark side' of social intelligence, including narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy.

The book emphasizes our innate bias toward empathy, cooperation, and altruism, provided we develop the necessary social intelligence.

Goleman offers insights into how social intelligence can be developed to improve personal and professional relationships and overall well-being.
