As well as containing descriptions of patterns, NLP training exercises and systemic framing notes for each NLP pattern, the authors have carefully excluded the irrelevant content that has slipped into many of the NLP trainings taught in the world today! The practitioner student can rest assured that the material in the field guide covers the necessary and sufficient patterns for mastery of practitioner level NLP. Master practitioners of NLP can use the guide to gain a richer description of NLP, as well as a useful review of practitioner level patterns. The Field Guide is also an invaluable resource for NLP trainers and trainer candidates.

The Field Guide is produced in a large size (297mm x 210mm) format for ease of use during training. This comprehensive Guide is beneficial for anyone participating in a practitioner of NLP training.

Publisher: 2001 Scotts Valley, CA: J& C Enterprises ISBN: 0971722307 "Whispering in the Wind" is the long awaited book by Carmen Bostic St Clair and co-creator of NLP Dr. John Grinder. Until now the field of NLP has lacked a credible, up to date book that spells out the fundamentals of NLP, the epistemology of the field and the historical context in which it arose. This book defines the principles (with examples) underpinning NLP in a manner that enables the reader to establish whether material taught by some in the field is NLP or not! "Whispering in the Wind" clearly spells out the fundemental process / content distinction of NLP and suggests an appropriate methodology for doing NLP research. Grinder and Bostic St Clair also clarify the distinctions between logical levels, logical types and part / whole hierarchies an area of significant confusion among many NLP trainers. We hope that "Whispering" will encourage NLP trainers to examine their own practices and derive benefit for their students and themselves through incorporating the rigour offered by Grinder and Bostic St. Clair. This book does require a level of experience and competence in NLP and is recommended for people who have completed a practitioner of NLP training. We think this book is as seminal as the first book on NLP; Bandler and Grinders' "Structure of Magic Volume 1" and a 'must read' for Master Practitioners and especiallly Trainers of NLP. "Whispering in the Wind" covers important distinctions in NLP within the domain of modelling, NLP application and NLP training. To find out more visit www.nlpwhisperinginthewind.com

Publisher: 2000 Real People Press ISBN: 0911226400 My Lessons with Kumi tells the story of a man who sets out to develop his skills as a presenter and finds that in the process he is on a journey of self discovery. Autobiographical in nature, Pulitzer Prize winner and Emmy Award winner Michael Colgrass has found an innovative way of bringing NLP to the public by incorporating it into this novel. Colgrass is a long-term student and friend of NLP co-creator John Grinder who, together with Judith DeLozier, created the New Code of NLP in the 1980s. They were concerned that the original or Classic Code of NLP was not being taught in a sufficiently systemic and ecological manner by all trainers. With each chapter in this novel, Colgrass highlights through metaphor a description of NLP in the New Code format. We are recommending this book as a required text for Practitioners and Master Practitioners of NLP.
