Reframing is the art of shifting meaning. Bandler and Grinder put their attention on using communication, verbal and non-verbal, to shift meaning in their client's models of the world. An emphasis is on using language and language patterns. In this regard they succeed admirably. However, where I think they go off track is in their descriptions of "parts" and what they call 6-step reframing, even one of the authors - Richard Bandler says he doesn't do this anymore. I agree and add that it introduces fractionation and fragmentation in clients which isn't useful or suggested. This has bred a continuing controversy in the NLP(tm) community of professionals. Some still use the "parts" model and some are beginning to move away from it in favor of more integral and wholistic methods. There are other books that do a better job of presenting reframing and utilzation of language patterns, but with this caveat in place I recommend the book to anyone seeking to deepen and widen their knowledge of the NLP(tm) model. If you want to go further in understanding where the model has gone since the authors wrote this book try some of the later books, especially "Time for a Change" by Richard Bandler and "Persuasion Engineering" by Richard Bandler with John LaValle. Both of these present the new forms of hypnotic language usage quite well within a more integrated model.

Never have I ever read a book with so many spelling errors. I couldn't make it past page 30.
What they teach is incredibly interesting, but I simply found it unreadable. This books been around since 1982, so I have no idea why in all these years no one has corrected the spelling and grammar. I'm not talking the odd word here and there, I'm talking multiple words per page.
I could maybe forgive (although I still wouldn't be able to read it) the errors if the book had been translated from another language but these guys are American so there is no excuse. I think it was actually edited by two foreigners lol :) They both had the Greek/Cypriot surname of Andreas. Maybe it's a self publish book?
I'm not saying don't read this book, because these are the guys that invented NLP, so they know their stuff, and I am sure that if you can look past the spelling errors/grammar that the book would be fascinating, but I feel kind of cheated that I have bought it but have been unable to read it. I tried about 3 or 4 times, but I haven't been able to get past the errors, so regrettably I won't be finishing reading it. Shame.
