David Robson is a British science writer and author who specialises in the psychology and neuroscience of human behaviour. He has written for the BBC, the Guardian, New Scientist and numerous other publications, and is known for his ability to translate complex scientific research into engaging, practical insights for general... audiences. The Expectation Effect examines how our expectations — what we believe will happen — shape our reality, from the placebo effect in medicine to the ways our mindset affects our physical health, cognitive performance and ageing. The book draws on cutting-edge research to show that our expectations are far more powerful than most people realise. Available as both a book and an audiobook, The Expectation Effect offers fascinating listening and reading for anyone who wants to understand the science of how beliefs shape reality — and how to harness that power to improve their health, performance and wellbeing.
