Emotional Intelligence: Why Can It Matter More Than IQ

September 15, 2010
Overall, Emotional Intelligence provides a useful summary of the neuroscience and behavioral research of the emotional regions of the brain. Goleman describes in some detail how the emotion circuits in our brain spring into action before the same sensory information has even reached the prefrontal cortex (the “thinking” part of our brain). This means that, by virtue of the way our brain is hardwired, we cannot completely control our emotional states.
