Bowen wisely and aspiringly portrays the development of emotional intelligence as a field of study and its relevance to individual differences and related psychological constructs, such as stress, emotion, coping, well-being and cognitive intelligence. The book briefly depicts the different paradigms of emotional intelligence (i.e., Ability, Mixed and Trait approaches) while discussing on the agreements, disagreements, limitations and future perspectives in the field, which can be summarised by the question announced in the title. Also, the book provides useful advice for training and development of emotional intelligence through several practical means. Pablo A. Pérez-Díaz University College London Dr.Bowen assumes that emotional intelligence does exist. He does explain that a substantial number of studies have been undertaken over the last 25/30 years, that emotional intelligence can be measured and is therefore in existence. The book is helpful to those interested in the areas of research associated with emotional intelligence and stress management. It would also be of interest to those in or entering into the realm of higher education as it brings to the surface interactions of emotions within academic walls.
