Product Description

Product Description
At last, a Little Book of Quitting, containing more than 100 inspirational and memorable phrases to reinforce Allen Carr's successful message. A perfect gift book and impulse purchase for those who want to give up or for people eager to help smokers kick the habit.

About the Author
Allen Carr was an accountant and smoked 100 cigarettes a day until he gave up and wrote this bestselling book. He 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.'

First Sentence
Imagine a drug that causes the premature death of one in two users, costs the average addict £50,000 in a lifetime, makes you feel insecure, bored and tense, tastes foul, ruins your confidence, impedes your concentration and has no advantages whatsoever. Read the first page

5.0 out of 5 stars 60 a day to zero a day with no problem at all, 8 Mar 2002
By A Customer
ALL of my friends that have read this book have ALL stopped smoking. I smoked my first cigarette at the age of nine and now aged 34 I've decided to give it up.
At no stage did I think that I would ever be successful but I haven't smoked a single cigarette since finishing this book. I feel wonderful and free at last!
If you want to give up or even if you think that it would be nice to give up, read this book and you will not want to smoke again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Become a non-smoker today!!!, 3 Jul 2004
By A Customer
I read this tiny little book one evening and was a non-smoker by the next morning. And this was more than 2 years ago! The trick is to start thinking in a different way. It is unbelievably simple, you don't need huge amounts of will power or self discipline, just your own free choice. It's healthier, cheaper, cleaner and you get to feel very self-empowered. Do it today.

5.0 out of 5 stars Much better value than ten Marlboro Lights, 25 May 2003
By Mr. Alexi Cawson "acawson" (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
If you smoke, this book will be the best £2.50 you ever spend. There's no magic secret to Allen Carr, but he does have a marvellous way of debunking all the myths that smokers use to persuade themselves that they're not infact hopelessly addicted to a poisonous drug.

Don't bother buying the full edition of this book - this small edition has all the content without the repetitiveness, and furthermore can be carried in a pocket and whipped out if ever the urge for a cigarette strikes.

There is one issue on which I strongly disagree with Carr. He claims that you will give up without putting on weight - and yet in the same book acknowledges that cigarettes are an effective appetite suppressant. I defy anyone to stop smoking and not find themselves munching at food more than they previously did. Partly this is for a positive reason - you can actually taste food and drinks if you're not constantly killing your taste buds with foul cigarettes!
