Editorial Reviews

Review

....This is a splendid book and, arguably, one of the best books on hypnosis and its clinical application that this reviewer has encountered.....There are few tomes on hypnosis that I have found as stimulating. This is an aided, to a large extent, by the authors' clarity of expression....The book is entirely comprehensible whether it is being used by a novitiate or someone skilled in hypnotherapy....This most readable book is more than a reference work....[It] is a book which all clinical practitioners using hypnosis should have on their library shelf. I even like the dust jacket design!
—The International Journal of Clinical and Experimental Hypnosis

The authors carefully and systematically depict a multidimensional systems perspective for practical clinical and research evaluation of treatments of illnesses conceived as complexly developed and maintained as a function of various contributing factors. The integrated approach is scholarly, analytical, and thorough....This volume is readable and well illustrated with clinical material.
