"An important book by two leading experts. Dr. Watkins has a wealth of clinical knowledge and experience, and Dr. Barabasz is a leading scientific expert on hypnosis. The combination is an excellent one. The book has potential to be a major work on depth psychotherapy utilizing hypnosis. Dr. Watkins is well known for his work on ego state therapy, and techniques employing hypnosis such as the "affect bridge." It is original, important, and timely material. There is a need for more good books on hypnosis and intensive psychotherapy. I recommend it for publication." - David Spiegel, Stanford University School of Medicine, USA, co-author of Trance and Treatment: Clinical Uses of Hypnosis
