  • The God Effect

    How Suggestion and Ritual Shape Religion and Medicine through Placebo Responses
    (Author)

    The God Effect is the first book of its kind, revealing the way in which there is a common factor which links medicine and religion — the way in which people respond to the actions of doctors, by feeling better, is identical to the way in which people feel better after praying, being counselled, or taking part in religious rituals.
