5.0 out of 5 stars 13 Years Smoke Free!!!, May 12, 2001

This review is from: Kicking It:: The New Way to Stop Smoking Permanently (Paperback)

I bought the first edition of this book thirteen years ago, and was able to stop smoking easily, despite being very discouraged by many false starts and failures before.

It's well laid-out, addresses the urge to smoke on many different levels. The author has obviously thought through so many facets of smoking addiction and has come up with ingenious strategies for dealing with them all.

This is a real thinking smoker's self-help book.

5.0 out of 5 stars It Worked for Me!!!, July 18, 2000

This review is from: Kicking It:: The New Way to Stop Smoking Permanently (Paperback)

I stumbled onto Dr. Geisinger's book while looking for something else. I had tried to quit three times before--unsuccessfully. I followed the book's instructions and read a chapter per week/followed the recommendations for four weeks and guess what?!?! I became a non-smoker in one month and have not smoked nor even had the desire to since then! Oh, did I mention--I bought Dr. G's original release of "Kicking It..." back in November of 1980...

This review is from: Kicking It (Signet) (Paperback)

An easy to read , step by step guide to end the addiction of cigarette smoking. The author provides the strategies and skills necessary to help you quit as well as a justifiable, scathing indictment of the tobacco industry.
