It's all in the mind I read about Erickson as the pioneer of NLP, and his work in hypnosis and psychotherapy and was intrigued. This book is a great introduction to Erickson.

So much to discover An easy read; well written; an excellent resource for training therapists and health professionals and those that have been in the business for sometime. This book is full of gems. Every story can be viewed on so many levels. You can discover skills and techniques and ideas from the stories while absorbing and enhancing your natural ability to share the right story with the right person at the right time in the right way to make a difference to so many people's lives.
A thought provoking book on the power of language! I discovered this book after reading a book on how the 'Milton Model' can be used in NLP. Although perhaps primarily aimed at therapists, I found the stories very readable and along with the commentaries, perfect examples of the power of language. It seems to me that Milton Erikson had a phenomenal insight into human behaviour and much can be learned from these, 'teaching tales.'
Perfect 10 Undoubtedly one of the best books I've read on Milton Erickson. All the short stories are well written, vivid and always make a point. Aesop would have been proud. It is not a technical manual, more like an analogy or an allegory.
I'd read it all over again easily.
