Product Description
This outstanding work of research extracts the core wisdom of Milton H. Ericksons life-long work. Gleaned from the records of over 140 publications and lectures given by Erickson during his career this combined volume is an essential part of the available literature on Dr. Erickson. Part One on Human Behavior and Part Two on Psychotherapy, presents his methods and lessons, including his feelings on the use of objective observation, the uniqueness of the conscious mind, the realities and abilities of the unconscious mind, the creation and use of a therapeutic environment, and many other aspects of the life and work of this remarkable thinker and teacher. Part Three, Hypnosis & Hypnotherapy, presents a clear account of how Dr. Erickson conceived of hypnosis, particularly its access to the unconscious and its role in the process of therapy.

I am a "layperson" with a deep interest in Erickson's work and I have a collection including most of his writings. However, there is so much of it that I admit I have gotten lost in the volumes, without ever a hope of sorting out the nuggets of technique and the foundations of Dr. Erickson's philosophy. This book does an amazing job of sorting it all out, and I am greatly indebted to Dr. Havens for doing so. Yes, the text is mostly quotes from Erickson's writings. The brilliance is in how they are categorized, and in Dr. Havens' accompanying interpretations. This book has instantly become one of the most valued in my collection.

OK, this is a beautiful book, I admit. Yet it is totaly uninformative it only has quotes and doesn't teach you really something. It's too general.
Suppose you take thirty pictures of diffrent churches and shred them all into little pieces and look at the pieces you will learn nothing of architecture nor history.
And three stars is even a little overrated.
