Customer Reviews

What a great book
So easy to put into practice and easy to read. This is a great book to get yourself back on track after being put down for many years. Yes its so good to be in control of my life.

NLP for dummies
If you have always wanted to know what NLP is about, then this is a good place to start. This book will guide you through the basic principles of Neurolinguistic Programming and will help you apply them to yourself.
If you are already familiar with NLP this book is probably not for you.
The title suggests that the book is for "dummies". This term is used rather loosely. "Dummies" refers to those with no or little experience with NLP.
If for some reason you need to speak the jargon with little or no experience this book may also be for you.
If on the other hand you take NLP serious, I also recommend the accompanying workbook.
Remember however, this has worked for me. It may be different in your case.

A good read
I previously bought the 'Teach Yourself' NLP book, got half way through it and I thought it was boring and I began to lose interest. I saw the Dummies book which appeared to be much more entertaining. I bought it, it is!
