I read the only other reveiew for this book and was taken aback by the incorrect statments and insults thrown at Allen Carr.
This book is fantastic! Does it need to be long-winded and complicated to control drinking? Only if the answer is complicated, I would imagine. Allen simply explains just how easy it is to control your alcohol intake, with no added colours perservatives or fuss. A simple sweet method, unique in every detail. However should you require a more detailed explanation of just how easy it is to control your intake then buy his other book, 'The Easy Way to Control Alcohol'.
Have you ever played snooker? Difficult isn't it! When you watch good players on television like Ronnie O'Sullivan they make it appear so easy and simple, and to them it is, because they know how to play it. Allen Carr knows how to make it easy for us to control alcohol and what he has done here in this short book is to make the method understanable to everyone by condensing the information. There are no gimmicks, exercises to follow, waiting to see if it has worked on you, no substitutes. Just instant results. The book is brilliant and for a few pounds it is worth taking a look at.
Good luck! Although you wont need it with this book!

I've read this book over the weekend and it's like a light going on. What an idiot I've been. Please, if you wonder if you've got a drink problem you probably have, read this book. It makes so much sense. Allen Carr is a life saver, I only wish I'd had this book to give to other family members!!

Format:Paperback
There are only a handful of books out there which I can say changed my life and this is one of them. I would recommend this to absolutely anyone, whether it be an alcoholic or an occasional social drinker. Easy to read, this book lifts away all the illusions surrounding alcohol and allows you to view drinking for what it really is (which is nothing more than a confidence trick) - once the illusions are removed it's incredibly easy and the desire to drink just melts away. In fact after reading this book I would need to find willpower to drink.
I never would have believed that such a small and simply illustrated book could have such an impact, however, I have not drank and more importantly I have NOT had the desire to drink ever since reading this short book. After just one hour of reading my life had changed and I am now a happy non drinker. What compelled me to buy this book was like most people I had developed a fractional addiction (I'd have a few drinks after work, on most occasions just one drink would turn into six and I'd wake up with a debilitating hangover nearly every Saturday morning). Then one morning after yet another drunken escapade I was sick and tired both physically and mentally and so I decided to search on-line for some resource to help me at least cut down on the quantity I was drinking. However, after reading this book and understanding the true nature of alcohol I have not desired to touch another drink ever since. I must say my life has really taken off since a year and half ago, I have great looking skin, stacks of energy, more self confidence and mental strength than I've ever had in my life and my interests have increased significantly (tennis, running, mountain climbing, skiing etc.). Furthermore, I've saved a fortune, no more self-disgust, emotional outbursts or degenerating my body. I'm unrecognisable compared to my old self in terms of new found mental strength. Not drinking leaves you feeling better equipped to deal with life all round (situations that used to seem tricky or difficult are much easier to deal with). I still enjoy going out and socialising with the same people and places I always have, even in bars, so stopping drinking doesn't necessarily mean changing your current social pattern, it just means you start living your life to its full potential. For a few pounds this book is definitely worth a try!!!!

Bizarre
It's worked so far, I've gone from drinking every day to not having had one for a week. This may not seem a long time, but it's incredible for me. Read more

No Stopping You
Ok, so I've not read all of it yet. I got a little disheartened halfway through. You'd have to read it to see why. I read the first half, just like it says, when sober. Read more

The best self-help book ever written
I purchased this excellent book for a measly 3 quid from Amazon. When it arrived I flicked through it and laughed to myself 'How can such a small book lay claim to help you control... Read more

worked for me
I read the reviews (positive and Negitive)before I purchased Allen Carr's book and decided for the cost of a bottle of wine I would give it a go, one of my better choices.

success at last
I dont normally do reviews but in this case I feel I have to. After all this book changed my whole life. I read this book over two and a half years ago. Read more

Interesting Point of view
An interesting point of view. Works for some, I guess but does not address the reason you drink. Better to seek professional help from your doctor or counseller.

Disappointing
Only buy this book if you wish to give up drinking altogether. It is not designed to help you cut down to recommended limits - any alcohol at all is frowned upon. Read more

Condascending, unhelpful rubbish
I wondered why this "book" was so cheap, and having read it I realise it's because it was probably written, edited and published in about half an hour! Read more

BRILLIANT!
I have to say that for a problem as serious as alcohol addiction, you would never have thought that a small book like this could help. Read more
