Product Description

Product Description

The revolutionary international bestseller that will stop you smoking – for good. ‘If you follow my instructions you will be a happy non-smoker for the rest of your life.’ That's a strong claim from Allen Carr, but as the world's leading and most successful quit smoking expert, Allen was right to boast! Reading this book is all you need to give up smoking. You can even smoke while you read. There are no scare tactics, you will not gain weight and stopping will not feel like deprivation. If you want to kick the habit then go for it. Allen Carr has helped millions of people become happy non-smokers. His unique method removes your psychological dependence on cigarettes and literally sets you free. Accept no substitute. Five million people can't be wrong.

About the Author

Allen Carr was an accountant and smoked 100 cigarettes a day until he gave up and wrote this bestselling book. He has built a hugely successful network of stop-smoking clinics across the world and is the author of The Only Way to Stop Smoking, How to Stop Your Child Smoking, The Easy Way to Enjoy Flying and The Easyweigh to Lose Weight. In 2004 Allen published his bestselling autobiography Packing It In (Michael Joseph). He was diagnosed with lung cancer in the summer of 2006 and died in November of the same year. It seems likely that the years he spent curing smokers in smoke-filled sessions at his clinics must have contributed to this illness, but Allen Carr remained positive; 'Given that I am informed that I have cured at least 10 million smokers on a conservative estimation, it's a price worth paying.'

5.0 out of 5 stars How to Quit Smoking- No If, Ands, or Butts, 21 Jun 2007
This review is from: Allen Carr's Easy Way to Stop Smoking: Be a Happy Non-smoker for the Rest of Your Life (Paperback)
No need for a long review here. About the first three quarters of the book is spent exploding various myths and delusions about smoking (such as smoking relaxing you or getting rid of stress), which sets you up and gets you into the right frame of mind for actually quitting. At this point, the book wants you to continue smoking while you read it. In a nutshell, the easy way to stop smoking involves two things: one, deciding you are never going to smoke again, and two, don't mope about it anymore, rejoice. Sounds too simple, but after reading the first part of the book, this strategy will make more sense to you.

Lastly, the book cites two main reasons why you will fail: the influence of other smokers, and having a bad day. Having been around for 20 some years and being able to refine it with twenty years of feedback, I feel like this is one of the better books out there on non-smoking.

Also helpful: The Sixty-Second Motivator -short, to the point, and practical.

5.0 out of 5 stars A psychology trip, 18 Feb 2006
This review is from: Allen Carr's Easy Way to Stop Smoking: Be a Happy Non-smoker for the Rest of Your Life (Paperback)
I smoked 20 a day for 15 years which increased to 40 when my husband died. I knew I was in bad health because I couldn’t sleep on my back - I coughed constantly and was asthmatic. I was basically stressed to death being a single parent and bereaved.

I purchased 'easy way to stop smoking' just before Christmas 2004, telling myself I would read it in the Christmas break and give up in the new year. This didn’t go quite to plan because it took longer to read and Allan Carr’s instructions are to read the whole book before you try to give up. On page 2 I was ready to quit but wasn’t allowed to yet!

I set a day to quit when I reached the end of the book. I did it with no difficulty whatsoever ~ cold turkey from 40 a day to zero over night! I had no withdrawal symptoms, wasn’t angry or short tempered. A year later I can say it was the best £8.99 I ever spent. Easyway works on a different level - it’s a whole psychology trip.

5.0 out of 5 stars 20 years @ 20 a day ... not any more, 13 Feb 2006
This review is from: Allen Carr's Easy Way to Stop Smoking: Be a Happy Non-smoker for the Rest of Your Life (Paperback)
THIS BOOK WORKS! I can't put it any more simply than that. As long as you follow the instructions and really take in what he's saying, it's a painless process. Four or five people at my work have used Allen Carr's methods too - whether it be the book or the clinics - and they're off the fags too. These are hardened smokers we're talking about here...as I've mentioned, I smoked 20 a day for 20 years and i'm now into my fourth week of non-smoking and am LOVING IT! I don't care how cynical you are about self-help gurus - this guy has definitely cracked the problem of how to get people off cigarettes painlessly. Best spend of a few quid you'll ever make (if you smoke, that is!).
