Synopsis

Much of daily life runs on autopilot, with a remarkable number of decisions and behaviours repeated without conscious thought, from how we act around others to what we buy, and when we exercise, eat and drink. When change is needed, many people depend on willpower and good intentions, only to find that approach rarely holds.

Drawing on three decades of original research, Wendy Wood explains how habits are built and why they are so persistent. Using a blend of neuroscience, case studies and experiments from her lab, she sets out a clear framework for working with the habitual mind to support positive changes that stick. Suitable for readers looking for an accessible, research-led guide to behaviour change.
