Product Description

Product Description
This little book is a distillation of Richard Wiseman's research into how to lead a luckier life. Featuring much new material - including original 'charm' designs that will help you to stay lucky - as well as an overview of the four principles that make up the luck factor, this is a fun and accessible insight into the scientific principles of good fortune. Small enough to fit in your pocket, its contents are powerful enough to change your life!

About the Author
Professor Richard Wiseman obtained a first class honours degree in Psychology from University College London, a doctorate in psychology from Edinburgh University, and was awarded the prestigious Perrott-Warrick Scholarship from Trinity College Cambridge. He now heads a research unit based within the Psychology Department at the University of Hertfordshire. He has featured on hundreds of radio and television programmes, and feature articles about his work have appeared in The Times, the Daily Telegraph and the Guardian. He has also devised several large-scale experiments involving thousands of people. Many of these have been carried out in collaboration with the Daily Telegraph and the BBC science programme Tomorrow's World.

3.0 out of 5 stars Improve your Luck, 22 Feb 2006
By A Customer
The Little Book of Luck provides a short and lighthearted guide to improving your luck. It only took me 30 minutes to read but it contains some good stuff and is worth re-reading from time to time to refresh your thoughts. Basically, being lucky seems to come down to having positive expectations about events and people, smiling and being happy, taking mishaps on the chin and moving on from them, and setting clear goals and working towards them. Much of this is familiar from a forest of self help manuals. This book has the advantage of being cheap, nicely written and containing much of the key stuff without the preaching of some self help texts. If you are feeling stuck in a rut, try this out.

This little book is a quick overview what luck is all about. Luck is not random, you can influence it. No matter how you feel, this little book will give you a push in the direction of being luckier and therefore happier.
