"The authors performed a great job in doing extensive research, highlighting summaries of data, mentioning different studies, results of working with hypnosis, some methods or approaches, putting together an impressive list of references ... For the reader it is inspiring to learn from other clinician's experience and see which approaches are proven helpful and/or efficient."Dr. Nicole Ruysschaert, ESH President

"This is an excellent book. It is the best survey of the responsible practice of clinical hypnosis in the UK. The introduction, which provides an overview of theory and research about the nature of hypnosis, should be required reading for anyone practicing or training to practice in the field."Irving Kirsch, Harvard Medical School, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, USA, and University of Plymouth, UK

"This worthy successor to the first edition provides an engaging, authoritative, and scientifically-grounded introduction to the field of hypnosis, as well as a wealth of valuable information on specific psychological, medical, and dental applications of hypnosis. I highly recommend this valuable handbook to clinicians, researchers, and anyone who is a student of hypnosis or wishes to learn to use hypnosis to promote physical and mental health."Steven Jay Lynn, Distinguished Professor of Psychology, Binghamton University (SUNY), USA

"This book is highly recommended for anyone with a keen interest in hypnotherapy, be they students, trainees, clients, clients' supporters, researches or practitioners. For the latter there is extensive material for reflective analysis in order to develop more effective practice. In brief, this is a significant volume in the growing corpus of knowledge and is indispensible as a course text."Peter Farnbank, AFBPsS, Chartered Psychologist, Chartered Scientist

It is commonly known that some individuals are more easily hypnotized than others. What is less clear is why, and what can be learnt from these individual differences for hypnosis as a whole. The Highly Hypnotizable Person is the first book to present an up-to-date, comprehensive overview of what research and evidence there is for the existence and features of highly hypnotisable people. The Highly Hypnotizable Person draws on research findings from cognitive, developmental and clinical psychology and from neuropsychology and neurophysiology. Leading authorities on hypnosis provide a comprehensive account of what is known and understood about this phenomenon and treatment procedure, and in particular, the nature and implications of high susceptibility.
