Novices should skip this poorly written "How to" book. The basic techniques outlined by the author are not fully explained. The authors favorite technique described on page 84 is incomplete or too vague. I'm concerned by the authors section on "Homosexual to Heterosexual and Vice Versa.... It seems the author fails to talk about the "vice versa"... (an attempt at political correctness poorly disguised?!) This is reported to be the revised edition (gee, I would hate to see the first!) Editing and proofing are needed... Keep telling yourself: Buy another book... Save your money... Buy another book... Save your money...

I had been interested in the art of hypnotism and so I thought I could learn from this book. I am sorry to say that this book could have used more elaboration in the techniques. The things discussed in this book were not explained in an easy to read manner, therefore making it hard to grasp it.

I read the not revised book. should be the same right?!?! anyway, not knowing hardly anything about it, i thought this book to be a great resource. it takes you step by step from testing to see how suggestible to the acctual putting under. to the people that wrote it needed to be more in depth. Its hypnosis, most of it is just repeating, and anyone can make up there own techniques this is mearly a guide. nothing should be easy there's no fun in the conquest then!
