What is it like to be an empath? Empaths are highly sensitive people with natural abilities of sensing, feeling the emotion of others and looking into their cognitive state of others. Very often, empaths are born with these abilities and yet are unaware of them, quietly waiting to be awakened at the right time.

This book explores the nature of emotional intelligence through investigation of various theories and approaches to measurement. It presents fair criticisms of these theories and measures, as well as of some of the broad claims made by EQ proponents. It identifies and describes various tests and online quizzes that you might take in order to gain an understanding of your own emotional intelligence.

Have you been fascinated by the concept of the empath, especially as recently used by real people to describe themselves? Have you ever wondered, "What in the (real) world is an empath?" or perhaps even, "Am I an empath?" This book provides a balanced, practical, no-nonsense look at the immensely popular and equally fascinating concepts of empathy and the empath. You will no longer be ignorant and you will understand all of the different definitions and explanations associated with the term and understand related scientific theories.

Bliss Island seems like an idyllic place to live - especially to the people suffering on the war-torn mainland.

Characters on the show think they're better off on Bliss than the mainland, but they're always in danger of being cut if their ratings dip too low. And no one really knows what happens to cut characters.
