Thorough and easily understood by professionals and casual readers alike
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
I was assigned this book as a student in Hypnosis 101 and still refer to it in my professional practice. It is well written for the professional yet easily understood by the casual reader. It is very motivating and gives hope and direction for those wanting to make a change. No wonder it is cited in at least five other texts.
Good Starting Point
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This book is a really good starting point for a person looking to get involved with the field of clinical hypnosis as Hadley and Staudacher have clearly outlined the basic process. Providing useful inductions and scripts, you could practice with this volume for awhile and then could decide if you wanted to go on to more intensive hands-on practice.
Comprehensive book on hypnosis
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
The author presents an easy to read, interesting and usefull book on hypnosis. I was able to use the historical section for my lectures at various universities. The applications of hypnosis were simple to understand, yet advanced enough to meet the needs of professionals. I was very happy with the way Ms. Hadley explained the cognative approaches to smoking cessation, weight reduction and stress management. I am happy to recommend this book to my students.

I liked this book a lot. I feel that it would benefit the novice as well as the professional hypnotherapist. In this book it gives you information on exactly what to do with each situation it talks about. It gives you inductiona as well. It also talks about different type of hypnotic communication, I liked that part. This book would definetly help you along the way while you are studying and practicing hypnotherapy.
