Format:Hardcover
One of the stated aims of this books is to help the reader adopt an “Ericksonian attitude toward people; toward therapy and toward oneself as a therapist”. Thus the author offers an insight into the genius of Milton Erickson by presenting key topics in his approach and practices, illustrated with copious quotes. This is, by turns, fascinating and tedious, and it is a useful way of recreating Erickson’s viewpoint: the second half of the book, on hypnosis, is particularly useful. Personally, I would have liked some real case studies to illustrate the main points, but this is not a clinical book – there are no scripts or method statements here – instead it is a window into Erickson’s mind. The ideal gift for the hypnotherapist in your life, or for yourself, to build rapport with the mind of a genius.

Anyone wanting to learn more about the unconscious and conscious mind then this book is one of the best I have ever come across on the subject.
Milton Erickson is considered one of the top experts on the subject of the unconscious & conscious mind and his work is facinating to read about.
If you are very interested in the subject then this book is a must!

A virtual Rosetta Stone
31 Dec 2007
Format:Hardcover
I am a "layperson" with a deep interest in Erickson's work and I have a collection including most of his writings. However, there is so much of it that I admit I have gotten lost in the volumes, without ever a hope of sorting out the nuggets of technique and the foundations of Dr. Erickson's philosophy. This book does an amazing job of sorting it all out, and I am greatly indebted to Dr. Havens for doing so. Yes, the text is mostly quotes from Erickson's writings. The brilliance is in how they are categorized, and in Dr. Havens' accompanying interpretations. This book has instantly become one of the most valued in my collection.

Very nice but don't waste your money.....
22 Jan 2005
Format:Paperback
OK, this is a beautiful book, I admit. Yet it is totaly uninformative it only has quotes and doesn't teach you really something. It's too general.
Suppose you take thirty pictures of diffrent churches and shred them all into little pieces and look at the pieces you will learn nothing of architecture nor history.
And three stars is even a little overrated.
