I enjoyed going through this book and found it to be an updated traditional style manual of sorts. The authors are masters of this art and they demonstrate how anything can be a hypnotic induction. I have found the field of hypnosis changes very slowly and those that do the best are those who stick with it because it is their passion. This is a good read that goes through techniques and why they work. I felt like some of the reasons given as to why they work are the patter that becomes generalized throughout the many practitioners of this art. The book will be a resource on your shelf if you are interested in this subject matter and it is a good read.
