I got this book as a text for a class, and it is one of the few textbooks I have ever read almost cover to cover. Well written, easy to understand, and highly informative.

Fantastic, exactly what I wanted, February 29, 2008
By Counsellor (Australia)

This book was a text I required for a course I am doing and was $16 cheaper than buying it through where I am doing my course. It is exactly the text I was told I needed. It is a very informative, easy to read, and explains all techniques in a practical easy to learn form. I will read and re-read this text.

A definitive reference in the field of clinical hypnosis, April 06, 2002
By Anthony Louis (USA)

Hartland's book on hypnosis is a staple in the field. It has gone through many editions, this being the most recent and up-to-date. The information is scholarly, well presented, and clinically very useful. The authors do seem to have an academic bent and a bit of an anti-American bias. They question the importance of Milton Erickson's work and poo poo the NLP literature, while at the same time borrowing many clinical techniques from Erickson and NLP without giving due credit. That minor objection aside, I found this book to be richly clinically relevant and I would recommend it to anyone who uses hypnosis in clincial practice. It is one of the "Bibles" in the hypnotherapeutic literature.
