This book is a good introduction to the concept and practice of neuro-linguistic programming. It is a version that is made for "dummies" like me.

Romila Ready started by defining what NLP is, and how it helps a person in daily life. I like concepts like 'clean language' that she introduced in the

second half of the book.

The overall 'Dummies' structure of clearly highlighting anecdotes, giving jargon alerts, highlighting warnings etc., is good.

There are some good concepts and material in the book, but there is also a lot of verbiage. At the end, I was just glad that the book was coming to an end!
