The Expectation Effect: How Your Mindset Can Change Your World

The Expectation Effect by David Robson explores the powerful science of how our mindset shapes our reality. Drawing on cutting-edge research in neuroscience and psychology, Robson reveals that what we believe can directly influence our health, performance, and longevity—from how stress affects creativity to how positive views on aging can extend life expectancy. Using real studies and practical examples, he shows that while belief can’t replace medicine or logic, our expectations can profoundly alter body and mind. Insightful and evidence-based, this book offers practical tools to harness the mind’s power for a healthier, happier, and more successful life.
