The prediction machine: how your beliefs shape your reality -- A pious fraud: how beliefs can transform recovery from illness -- Do no harm: how expectations can hurt as well as heal, and how to break a curse -- The origins of mass hysteria: how expectations spread within groups -- Faster, stronger, fitter: how to take the pain out of exercise -- The food paradox: why indulgence is essential for healthy eating -- De-stressing stress: how to turn negative feelings to your advantage -- Limitless willpower: how to build endless reserves of self-control and mental focus -- Untapped genius: how to boost your own, and others', intelligence, creativity, and memory -- The super-agers: why you really are as young, or old, as you feel.
Did you know that people who believe stress is beneficial come measurable more creative when placed under strain? That associating aging with wisdom can add seven-plus years to your life? Such is the power of the expectation effect: what we think will happen changes what does happen. Robson takes readers into the many life zones the expectation effect permeates. He gives us the practical takeaways we need to improve our fitness, productivity, intelligence, and happiness. -- adapted from jacket
