In April of last year, the Chinese translation of American psychology writer Daniel Goleman's book Emotional Intelligence was published in Taiwan. In less than a year's time, 500,000 copies have been frantically snatched up, breaking all previous Taiwan book-sales records. Throughout the whole world, Taiwan is one of the places where Emotional Intelligence, or EQ as it is titled in Chinese, has sold the best.
去年四月，來自美國的《EQ》一書在台灣翻譯發行，不到一年時間就「狂銷」了五十萬本，不但打破國內以往書籍銷售記錄，也是全世界賣得最好的地區之一。
