We've been very active at Happy Mind...
We've been very active at Happy Mind...
As illustrated on the left (image © Eldan) this website has been a buzz of activity recently.
 
Hem, not quite, but we've got some new book reviews (and more on the way).
 
After all, reading creates flow, and flow is an ingredient of happiness. Lacking that, there is at least a chance you will fall asleep, which isn't so bad either...
 
You can also now view a list of all our content here (I hope you are impressed), and we have split the philosophy section into ethics and philosophy of mind.
 
I leave you with news that our sense of smell isn't so bad after all. This might be of interest to Eldan's furry friend, if only he wasn't too busy napping...
  
Happy reading and resting!

Katherine Power reviews Emotional Intelligence: Why It Can Matter More Than IQ by Daniel Goleman.
 
Daniel Goleman argues that IQ doesn't tell the whole story about intelligence. He believes that a different kind of intelligence, emotional intelligence, plays a bigger role in people's lives.  Emotional intelligence comes from qualities such as self-awareness, impulse control, persistance, motivation, empathy and social deftness, qualities which, in contrast with IQ, can be significantly changed by experience and education.

Katherine Power reviews Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro.

 

I'm not going to tell you what this book is about, because one of the pleasures of reading it is figuring out, bit by bit, what's going on – much as the characters themselves do, as they grow up. What I can say is that it takes place in England, in the late 90s, but that it's soon obvious this isn't the 90s England we are familiar with.
