About this book

In recent years there has been considerable interest in emotional intelligence. Drawing upon a rich theoretical and philosophical tradition, the author explains the concept and process of emotional production and how this works in gratifying, aversive and hierarchical situations as well as irreversible situations and situations of failure and success. This will provide a powerful framework for understanding the importance of emotional logic in relation to decision making and self-management and includes a number of compelling case studies.
