An interesting and divisive book. It is an excellent and thought-provoking read but one that
requires the reader to have critical faculties always intact (question everything you read). The
book claims an application of the latest research in neurology to therapeutic intervention. It has a
habit for sweeping statements and promotes an open hostility towards all other therapeutic
modalities, whose only purposes, according to the authors, are self survival - this is rich given the
trademarked nature of the HG franchise. It presses buttons that most therapy books don't and
tends away from the banal. It is eminently readable but achieves a self-satisfaction only matched
by Prochaska. I recommend reading it unreservedly but ask the reader not to take in ideas
without hunting a little supporting evidence. All therapy books should be this challenging of
existing therapeutic ideas. There is a ridiculous bit on physics which is nonsense of the highest
order.
