This is in short what Prof Peter Salovey of Yale University in the USA have written in the foreword: "I am delighted to add these words to Drs Ronél le Roux and Rina de Klerk's new workbook on emotional intelligence for teachers and parents of six- to sixteen-year-old children. I met Ronél and Rina at the First African Conference on Emotional Intelligence held in Durban, South Africa in 2002. Now, with the publication of their second workbook, the imaginativeness and creativity refelcted in their work with adults has been extended to children. It is activities such as those prescribed by Ronél and Rina that help to shape and polish emotional intelligence among our children. And, research conducted in our laboratories and elsewhere already demonstrates that these skills are associated with positive social behaviours (such as refusing drugs and alcohol, handling peer pressure, establishing satisfying relationships). So why not try to inculcate them in the home and school? With this workbook, you have the proper tools at your disposal."

The newest book is

"Optimise your Sports Performance through Emotional Intelligence."Author: Dr. Ronél le Roux. ISBN-10: 0-624-04394-0. It is published by Tafelberg Publishers, 2006. The Afrikaans title of the book is "Verbeter jou Sportprestasie deur Emosionele Intelligensie." With this book I show all people participating in sport (or not) that feelings are a natural and wonderful part of being human but that they need to be recognised and accepted to have a positive outcome. Intense negative feelings may hamper anyone’s performance whether it is a child or adult. They can also lead you to great heights if you pay attention and listen to what they want to tell you. Accepting and working with your feelings will make you more powerful and successful. Combining this skill with constructive thinking patterns and you will have a recipe for success. Try it, you have nothing to lose and so much to gain! It is my hope that the sportsmen and women who really need help with recognising and controlling their emotions and thinking patterns will benefit from this book. I made it as practical as possible so that everyone who is committed to enhancing these skills will be able to do that on his/her own. Remember that you can always improve your performances with these skills and you don’t need to have a problem in order to benefit from the book. While this book is aimed in the first instance at the adult sportsperson (16 years and older) it also contains important information that is applicable to the coaching of children. After all, today’s sportsperson may well be a coach or a parent tomorrow, or, for that matter, already be involved in parenting or coaching.
