Product Description

Synopsis
This work covers Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP), a model of human experience and communication. Using the principles of NLP, the book asserts that it is possible to describe any human activity in a detailed way that allows the reader to make many changes quickly and easily. It claims that using the techniques of NLP one can learn to: cure phobias and other unpleasant feeling responses; help children and adults with "learning disabilities" overcome these limitations; eliminate unwanted habits, eg. smoking, drinking, over-eating and insomnia; and make changes in the interactions of couples, families and organizations so that they function in ways that are more satisfying and productive.

3.0 out of 5 stars A good start to NLP, 30 Jul 1999
By A Customer
Frogs into Princes is the first major work on NLP, written by the founders. Many books copy this one (including others by the same authors!) It is a transcript from one of their earlier seminars on the subject and is thus challenging to read at first. Read this with care, again and again and you will be amazed at how some of these things actually work. But be prepared to interact with this piece to get the most out of it. If you are starting to learn this concept- hear it from the horse's mouth don't get the other books- start here.

5.0 out of 5 stars A UK NLP trainer recommends this book!, 30 Jul 1999
By A Customer
Written back in 1979 when the co-founders of NLP were still talking to each other, this is essentially a transcript of a seminar on sensory acuity, anchoring and reframing - a format that some people don't like, though I find it very readable and compelling. Some of the techniques that are presented may now have been superseded by more elegant ones, but the attitude of NLP comes through loud and clear. I can't think of a better introduction to NLP.

5.0 out of 5 stars A licensed NLP trainer reviews the seminal book on NLP., 3 Jan 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Frogs into Princes: Neuro Linguistic Programming (Paperback)
For what it is this book is a 10, and it's a hoot to read as well! Even though it's now over 20 years old this is the first (and best-IMHO) book introducing the still cutting edge technology of human communication and cognition - Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP). As far fetched a claim as it may seem, this is surely a seminal book in the field of human communication, linguistics, perception, cognition and psychology. The impact of NLP is present in all of these fields, often with more than a little kicking and yelling. After reading the book you're sure to understand why - Bandler and Grinder hold very little about traditional approaches and academic thinking as sacred. Although it's actually about a shift in the paradigm of how change can and does occur, it sometimes reads more like an exploration into the world of Svengali like magic and illusion. The material is presented in the form of a transcript of a live training superbly edited by Steve Andreas. The book is an example of 'doing' NLP as opposed to 'describing' it. It puts you in the training as Richard and John present it. As the editor of the book states in the forward, keep your mind open as you read because the authors are more often then not doing what they're describing. You'll want to read it with your eyes open - sometimes more easily said then done, since what the authors are doing is often presented in hypnotically engaging language. I've talked to more than one person who kept finding themselves waking up a few hours after having read through a few pages in this book. It is best to read this book as you would a novel, continuing through to the end, rather than trying to figure out or understand an individual section before moving on. The material is written is such a way as to resolve itself as you read. This is an example of "nested loops" a teaching technique Bandler and Grinder use extensively. However you get through it, in the end you'll find your thinking about thinking changed, and the journey as well worthwhile as the destination. As they say themselves, this book has nothing to do with theory or even the truth about things - instead it's "all about what works."
