Written by habit scientist Professor Wendy Wood, it explains why willpower alone so often fails and offers a practical, evidence-based alternative. Ideal for readers interested in psychology, self-improvement, productivity or behaviour change, this bestselling title translates thirty years of academic research into clear, everyday strategies for reshaping routines around work, health, relationships and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Book\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nGood Habits, Bad Habits explores the surprising extent to which daily life runs on autopilot. From how we behave in meetings to what we eat, buy and how we exercise, Wendy Wood shows that repetition and context shape our actions far more than conscious intention ever does. Drawing on decades of original research and lab experiments, she challenges the popular idea that discipline and willpower are enough to change behaviour, and instead reveals how small shifts in environment and context can make good habits automatic and bad ones easy to drop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book combines neuroscience, real-world case studies and Wood's own experiments to build a comprehensive, accessible framework for lasting change. Readers learn why some habits stick effortlessly while others collapse under stress, and how to design surroundings that quietly support the behaviours they want. Rather than offering quick fixes, Wood provides a genuinely practical roadmap grounded in science, making this an ideal read for anyone who has tried and failed to change through sheer determination alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eActionable strategies:\u003c\/strong\u003e Learn specific techniques to design environments and routines that encourage good behaviour.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScience-backed advice:\u003c\/strong\u003e Based on thirty years of original research in psychology and behavioural science.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAccessible paperback format:\u003c\/strong\u003e Easy to carry, mark up and revisit — ideal for commuting or bedside reading.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUseful for multiple audiences:\u003c\/strong\u003e Great for parents, educators, coaches, students and general self-help readers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTrusted, well-reviewed content:\u003c\/strong\u003e Praised by bestselling authors and covered in major publications.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nProfessor Wendy Wood is a UK-born psychologist and Provost Professor Emerita of Psychology and Business at the University of Southern California.
