The Elman Induction is rightly regarded as a timeless classic. This unique book takes the induction and brings it right up to date, by sharing the process as Elman taught it, as well as possible alternative understandings of what it taking place."Excellent, thoughtful study of the Dave Elman Induction. Graham Old dissects the technique and offers very useful insight on all aspects of what is probably the most useful hypnotic induction ever developed...
