Beskrivelse
In 'Placebo: The Power of Perception in Clinical Trials', readers are invited to explore the perplexing yet potent phenomenon of the placebo effect across a wide array of medical and psychological contexts. This anthology brings together pivotal scientific journal articles examining the intricate relationship between mind and body and the influence of expectation and belief on physiological and psychological outcomes. From insights into cough medicines and acupuncture pain management to explorations of placebo responses in mental health treatments, such as antidepressant therapy, and the variability in allergen-specific immunotherapy, this collection illuminates the broad scope and multifaceted nature of placebo effects. Additionally, it delves into the placebo-like impacts of price and branding on consumer behavior, offering a fascinating overlap between medical research and everyday decision-making. Ethical considerations, including the dilemmas surrounding deception in clinical trials, are also thoroughly examined. This comprehensive review challenges traditional perceptions and suggests new pathways for treatment by leveraging the power of belief and expectation.
