Environmental Threats to Healthy Kids: A conversation with Daniel Goleman and the Collaborative for Health and the Environment
Posted on Tuesday November 7th 2006
Daniel Goleman and Michael Lerner of Commonweal discuss the “neural ballet” of social intelligence, the sociability that connects us brain to brain with those around us, and the implications of both social and emotional intelligence for environmental health. What are the intersections of social and emotional intelligence with environmental contaminants? To what degree can social and emotional intelligence protect us from the cumulative impact of other forms of stress? Listen to the interview.
Welcome to the website and blog of psychologist Daniel Goleman, Ph.D., author of the New York Times bestseller Emotional Intelligence and Social Intelligence: The New Science of Human Relationships. Dr. Goleman is an internationally known psychologist who lectures frequently to professional groups, business audiences, and on college campuses.

His 1995 book, Emotional Intelligence (Bantam Books) was on The New York Times bestseller list for a year-and-a-half; with more than 5,000,000 copies in print worldwide in 40 languages, and has been a best seller in many countries.

This is sort of a long shot, but I am writing to find out how I might communicate with Daniel on his project of “environmental intelligence”. This is a strong area if scholarship for me and I am fascinated with what Dr. Goleman might be thinking these days about this topic. I know he has a book coming out next spring but wondered if he might have biolographic info or whether he would be interested in any potential research collaborations. Mainly, what is the best way to contact, Dr. Goleman.
