Berwins Salon North: The Power of Influence Thursday 14 July | 7.30pm | The Crown Hotel
In a world dominated by other people’s opinions, Salon gives you the knowledge to form your own. Harrogate’s answer to live TED talks, this cabaret style event is designed to excite your curiosity and change your life for the better – and all with time for a well-crafted G&T. We present the most stimulating ideas in arts, science and psychology in a relaxed and friendly setting. So, join us for big ideas in intimate spaces, learn from the experts, debate with friends, and make up your own mind. Award-winning science writer and author of The Expectation Effect: How Your Mindset Can Transform your Life, David Robson takes us on a tour of the cutting-edge research happening that suggests our expectations shape our experience. Learn the new techniques that we can all use to improve our fitness, productivity, intelligence, health and happiness. With a PhD in quantum physics, science author, journalist and broadcaster Michael Brooks is used to answering the ‘The Big Questions’. Drawing from his book The Art of More, Michael explains why maths is fundamental to our understanding of the world and how mathematics has influenced all aspects of our society, past and present, from ancient Egyptian priests through to Apollo astronauts.
