About Cary Cherniss
Cary Cherniss is a professor of psychology at Rutgers. He wrote Optimal together with Daniel Goleman, the author of Emotional Intelligence. Optimal revisits emotional intelligence more than twenty-five years after that first book appeared, looking at how the idea has developed. The two authors draw on research into how hundreds of people shape a good day, and they explain how emotional intelligence can help people feel they have had a productive one.
