Reviews

[Charles Frode]

Magic 1 and 2 give totally practical advice and theory about how to use modalities to both interpret another person's preferred way of inputting information and how to structure one's communications to fit another person's preferred modalities. The Patterns books 1 and 2 are also necessary to enable a professional communicator to have a full range of tools and the vocabulary to explain the process. Highly recommended. Look at Milton Ericson's books on my list too. He is the father of NLP.

I bit complicated but you can get much out of this book.

[Count-daniel Fogarty]

A must for those studying NLP and hypnosis.

Of course I bought my own hardcover which I have loaned out to someone to help them. I offered but I think they were afraid and rightly so...
