5.0 out of 5 stars I had no ideaa this was still in print...Hurray!!!, January 21, 2007

By	Freysson "freysson" (McDonough, Ga USA) - See all my reviews

This book is by one of the first wave of NLP scholars and innovators. Of them all Dilts and John Ginder were the two real scholars in the group. Dilts in this book shows that not only is he an innovative scholar and therapist but an author who can take material which can be complicated and explain it clearly and in a interesting way.

If you are interested in what NLP is and what it can do, this book will give you many of the basic patterns of practice. While Bandler and many of the other authors are entertaining, this book will give the patterns in clear prose without self promotion. Most of the classic texts and books will give you less. This is not like some of the books which give one or two patterns in the entire book. It rather gives pattern after pattern after technique in clear and understandable prose without water time or space.

If you want to learn it, this is the book. You will find few that give as much information as clearly.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for people who like to learn about strategy., January 4, 1999

By A Customer

I learned about Neuro Linguistic Programming

and the different strategies or meta-strategies.

It's not for the faint-hearted.

It's very, very logical.

It doesn't do well for all those intuitives out there!

Once you have flexibility, you like Robert Dilts

great distillation of innovative ideas.

I can't wait to train with him in the near future.

For computer people as well who like to get a way from the computer and into something more human.

If you like lockpicking, this book is about how to

distinguish the different locks in people's representational systems and personalities.

I thoroughly enjoyed the section about Modelling

and the Strategies section.

For human resource trainers this is a must read.

You will find the Design section a hoot!

Also for those physicists and mathematicians and doctors who like to map our personality and the genius behind life strategies.

Own this book! for your growing Neuro Linguistic Programming book collection.

I gave one to my mentor professor,Dr. Barclay at Michigan State University!
