How you can achieve the seemingly impossible with life lessons learnt from the historic Moon Landings
Described by a Scientific American columnist as ‘…one of the most interesting and innovative experimental psychologists in the world today’, Professor Richard Wiseman’s books have sold over 3 million copies worldwide, and he has presented keynote addresses to The Swiss Economic Forum, Google and Amazon.
Richard holds Britain’s only Professorship in the Public Understanding of Psychology at the University of Hertfordshire, is one of the most followed psychologists on Twitter, and the Independent On Sunday chose him as one of the top 100 people who make Britain a better place to live.
A Member of the Inner Magic Circle, Richard’s illusion-based YouTube videos have attracted over 500 million views, and he regularly acts as a creative consultant including work with Derren Brown, the hit US TV show Brain Games, and The Twilight Zone.
