Description
Emotional literacy means being able to recognize what you are feeling so that it enhances rather than interferes with thinking. In this, the second collection of her "Guardian" columns, Susie Orbach again explores what is really going on around and within us. Her belief that we must learn how to validate emotion in public and private life remains the cornerstone of her work.
