"Hope appears to be a 'soft' word. The Hope Effect tells us that’s not so. Hope is indeed all-powerful. This book, a true original, gives us practical guidance on how to take that 'soft' word, hope, and create a better world for individuals and our organizations." --Tom Peters, coauthor of In Search of Excellence and author of Excellence Now: Extreme Humanism
The Hope Effect is built on a simple but radical premise: hope is not wishful thinking. It is real, measurable, and trainable—and it changes outcomes that matter.
Most people treat hope as an emotion or a personality trait—something you either have or you don’t. The science says otherwise. Drawing on decades of research, The Hope Effect shows that hope is a distinct, measurable way of thinking—different from optimism—that can be learned, strengthened, and put to work. And when it is, the effects are measurable: in physical health and longevity, in performance and achievement, in how people recover, persevere, and lead.
This is not a book of inspiration or affirmations. It is an evidence-based account of what the research actually shows—and a practical framework for translating that science into how you live and work.

“Hope helped save my life. When I was read my last rites at 25 years old, hope gave me the belief that a better future was possible—and drove me to take action to make it happen. The Hope Effect brings together the compelling evidence behind the power of hope and provides a practical guide for turning hope into action. This book can change what you believe is possible—and what you do to make it possible.” --David Fajgenbaum, MD, MBA, MSc, National Bestselling Author of Chasing My Cure & Co-Founder and CEO of Every Cure
“I have needed hope from both sides of the bed—both as an intensivist delivering difficult news, and as a critically ill patient in my own ICU. Trzeciak and Mazzarelli show that hope has a science all its own. The Hope Effect is as vital as oxygen—for clinicians, for patients, truly for anyone holding on.” --Rana Awdish, MD MACP FCCP, best-selling author of In Shock and After Shock
