This is a book on how to gain control of one's emotions. It is a serious book that contains a theory of automatic processing it presents and its implications for controlling emotions. Epstein is a professor of personality psychology and a highly regarded research psychologist who has supported his theory with extensive research published in the most demanding professional journals. He was motivated to write the book by the success of a course he taught based on his theory. Students reported obtaining an understanding and control of their emotions that they never thought possible and that they said changed the course of their lives.
According to the theory, people operate by two minds, a rational-analytical mind and an intuitive-experiential mind, the latter being intimately associated with emotions. Each mind operates by its own principles and each has its own form of intelligence. The intelligence of the rational-analytical mind is measured by IQ tests and the intelligence of the intuitive-experiential mind (which is related to emotional intelligence) by the Constructive Thinking Inventory (CTI), a test developed by Epstein that is included in the book. By understanding the principles of operation of the intuitive-experiential mind, it is possible to train it as well as to learn from it, and thereby to improve one's emotional intelligence. The book provides exercises for applying the principles in everyday life and a review of a variety of other procedures for improving emotional intelligence. It is suited for use as a primary or supplementary text in courses on improving emotional intelligence or coping with stress as well as for individual reading.

Softcover. Condizione: Fine. Leichte Gebrauchsspuren; Leichte Verformung / umgeknickte Seiten. This book explores how to gain control over emotions through a theory of automatic processing and its implications. The author, a respected professor of personality psychology, has backed his theory with extensive research published in leading professional journals. Inspired by the success of a course he taught, where students reported transformative insights into their emotional control, he aims to share this knowledge widely. The theory posits that individuals operate with two minds: a rational-analytical mind and an intuitive-experiential mind, the latter closely linked to emotions. Each mind functions under distinct principles and possesses its own intelligence. The rational-analytical mind's intelligence is assessed through IQ tests, while the intuitive-experiential mind's intelligence, related to emotional intelligence, is measured by the Constructive Thinking Inventory (CTI), developed by the author and included in the book. By understanding how the intuitive-experiential mind operates, individuals can train and learn from it, thereby enhancing their emotional intelligence. The book offers practical exercises for applying these principles in daily life and reviews various methods for improving emotional intelligence. It serves as a valuable resource for courses on emotional intelligence and stress management, as well as for individual readers seeking personal growth.
