Book excerpt: In Personal Intelligence, John D. Mayer, the renowned psychologist who co-developed the groundbreaking theory of emotional intelligence, now draws on decades of research to introduce another paradigm-shifting idea: that in order to become our best selves, we use an even broader intelligence--personal intelligence--to understand our own personality and the personalities of the people around us. Bringing together a diverse set of findings, his theory explores our ability to read faces; to accurately weigh choices in relationships, work, and family life; and to judge long-term goals. Mayer illustrates his points with examples drawn from the lives of successful athletes, police detectives, and musicians, showing how people with high personal intelligence are able to anticipate their own desires, predict the behavior of others, and motivate themselves to make better life decisions. Personal Intelligence is an indispensable book for anyone who wants to better comprehend how we make sense of our world.
