Ecological Intelligence

by Daniel Goleman

Ecological Intelligence Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Ecological Intelligence recasts the uproar over global warming and the assault of man-made toxins into our bodies in terms of the collective self-deception which both created this crisis and holds a key to its solution. Ecological Intelligence argues that "green" labels and recycling programs may do more harm than good by feeding a vital lie, lulling us into the illusion that we are doing enough already while ignoring the adverse impact of the far vaster proportion of what we buy and do. The book brings a psychologist's insights into the world of commerce, arguing for radical transparency — tracking every substantial impact over the life cycle of an item, from manufacture to daily use, to disposal — and surfacing those impacts at the point of purchase. The movement toward such transparency augurs a day when the free market will operate in public interest.

Synopsis:

The bestselling author of "Emotional Intelligence" and "Primal Leadership" reveals the hidden environmental consequences of what societies make and buy, and how that knowledge can drive the changes necessary to save the planet.

Synopsis:

Goleman draws on cutting-edge research to show us a fresh way out of the largest crisis of our time--the environmental crisis that looms over us all.
