Product Description

Product Description

Allen Carr was a chain-smoker, who used to get through a hundred cigarettes a day until he discovered the Easyway to Stop Smoking in 1983. His method involves a psychological reappraisal of why people smoke as well as understanding the subtle and pervasive nicotine trap and how it works. This humourous, accessible book is designed to appeal to smokers who have failed to quit as well as non-smokers who want a loved one to quit smoking for good.

Format:Hardcover
Allen Carr has made stopping smoking ridiculously easy. My only complaint is that the author makes it far too easy to quit without the need for will-power or need for gimmicks or substitutes. Through logic and observable facts he dispels the illusion of pleasure that smoking provides. He doesn't even ask the reader to quit until they are happy and ready to do so at the end of the book.

I smoked for 18 years and am now a very happy non-smoker. Thank you Allen Carr! I cannot tell you succinctly enough of the utter joy I received on realising that I no longer had to continue to poison my body day after day, never being allowed to stop, as the addiction to nictotine enslaved me. Freedom is very sweet!

The author also provides two compact discs for after you have quit. They alone are worth the price of the book. Here is one happy customer and you will be too! Buy the book, GO ON! It will be the best decision you have ever, ever made. What have you got to lose? If you don't quit you will be no worse off than you are now. Remember Allen Carr will not ask you to quit until the end of the course. The course itself is so very easy that it is difficult to understand why we continued to smoke for so long. I now regard Allen Carr to be the only expert on nicotine addiction. Do you have a good enough reason not to buy this book?

I bought this book/CD set last Christmas with little hope of kicking my 12-year habit. I had little hope due to many failed attempts in the past. I felt I could never kick the habit until I read this book.

I read his book in two sittings in one day. While Allen states that you should keep smoking until he tells you to stop, my desire for nicotine was gone about half way through the reading.

The CD that's included reinforces what I'd come to understand in the book and sets up mechanisms for dealing with smokers in social situations and generally reinforces everything in the book.

If you want to quit smoking, buy this book and don't waste your money on patch's, nasal sprays and all that other gimmicks, they certainly haven't worked for me and believe me I've given them all a try.

Eight great months off the cigarettes and a longer life to look forward to smoke free, thanks to this book "Easy Way To Stop Smoking" by Allen Carr.

Believe the hype! 21 Oct 2004
By Jr Lorrimer VINE™ VOICE
Format:Hardcover
It's now 15 months since I read this book and gained my freedom from 25 years of slavery to nicotine. I laughed at how easy it was.. and then felt anger that I'd been fooling myself for so long. Stopping really was effortless, but unfortunately, the only difficulty you will have after reading this book is convincing other smokers that it is the best way to stop their habit successfully. Fortunately you will be armed with the information to explain their reasons for avoiding this book (basically the fear of "giving up" something!), but after buying several copies for friends who are now ex smokers I can assure you it is worth the effort. The only thing that can match the euphoria you will feel after reading this book is seeing the same results with others. By far the most amazing book I have ever read. A priceless investment that WILL change your life.
