More About the Author
Product Description
Review
'Yapko has made the best text on hypnosis even better. His commitment to sound science, clarity of reason and pragmatic applications is communicated with a passion in this new edition of Trancework. The freshness of information and skills, built on the wisdom of former editions, make this a state-of-the-art book for every therapist who wants to be (and shouldn't we all be?) a state-of-the-art practitioner.' - George W. Burns, clinical psychologist, Author, 101 Healing Stories and Standing Without Shoes
Product Description
Trancework, the most comprehensive guide to learning the fundamental skills of clinical hypnosis, is now available in an updated and improved third edition. Yapko clearly and dynamically introduces readers to a broad range of hypnotic methods and techniques that will greatly enhance the effectiveness of preferred modes of therapy. Chapters are filled with new and practical information, including extensive academic references, sample transcripts, thorough summary tables of key points, and interviews with leading figures in the field-Jay Haley, Theodore X. Barber, Ernest R. Hilgard, David Spiegel, Jeffrey Zeig, and Karen Olness, among others. This new edition specifically addresses the growing emphasis within psychotherapy on proving efficacy through empirical data, the controversy of repressed memory that has divided the profession, and the advances in cognitive neuroscience that are stimulating new research.
For newcomers, Trancework is an authoritative primer, demystifying hypnosis and offering step-by-step instruction for integrating it into clinical practice. Those familiar with hypnotic procedure will welcome Yapko's presentation of influential theories, controversies, treatment approaches, and rich case material. All readers alike are guided through personal and professional enrichment as they discover the art and science of clinical hypnosis as presented in this essential guide.

If you study hypnosis you can find lots of useful information in here.
It's great to have in your practice for techniques and scripts.

This book is easy to read and well structured. It's broken down into lots of small subjects so it's easy to search or to read bits at a time. Better than a reference book.

Ok I've given this a 3, but, I have to say Yapko has written comprehensively on the subject and that he definitely knows his stuff so in that way his book deserves a 4, or even a 5.
But, (and that's the sort of "but" that negates everything before it) this is such a technical and complicated book that it's not actually all that helpful to the everyday practitioner or hypnotherapist. It reads like a post graduate text book - think of yourself yawning in a stuffy library somewhere in the world. I don't understand why a teacher or communicator would make the subject less accessible in their book.
I'd suggest Ericksonian Approaches instead to be honest.
