Discover the latest findings in social neuroscience.
What’s the secret to harmony in a family? What methods can a manager use to stimulate employees’ brains to work at full power? Why are psychopaths excellent manipulators? How can we help children grow up happy? Can people learn to live without wars, hate, and malice? Science journalist and psychologist PhD Daniel Goleman is convinced that the answer to these and many other questions can be provided by a new, rapidly developing field of knowledge right before our eyes—social neuroscience. Our ability to communicate with one another—recently discovered—has its roots in the very foundations of the human being. On one hand, it depends on an enormous number of biological indicators, and on the other hand, it also influences them. In other words, by communicating, we change our counterpart—and we change ourselves as well. Social intelligence makes it possible to make this communication as productive as possible.
