In this volume Erickson focuses on the induction of hypnosis, and forms of indirect suggestion.

RICHARD BANDLER &JOHN GRINDER - "Patterns of the Hypnotic Techniques of Milton Erickson"
2 volumes, hardback- Paperback, 1975, 264 pp
Inscribed by Betty Erickson
$125
This pioneering work became the birth of NLP - a deconstruction of Erickson's hypnotism scripts. This is pretty heady stuff - for Ericksonians and serious students only. These are NOT beginners books! Not only is it unusual to find both volumes in hardback, but the first volume of this set is inscribed by Betty Erickson..

Hardbound w/dj, 1989, Brunner Mazel, 409 pp,
INSCRIBED BY THE AUTHOR
$39.50
Using Erickson's method of telling metaphorical tales, the Lankton's devote this volume to a series of tales used in therapeutic situations of changing attitudes, behaviors, family structures, self image, work with children, and trance phenomena goals. Better than a book of scripts, these are intricate teaching tales in the Ericksonian tradition.

S.J. VAN PELT - "Hypnotism and the Power Within"
Hardbound, 1950 , 202 pp, some spotting to end pages
Autographed by Dr. Van Pelt on the Title Page
$50.00
The first book by the prolific president of the British Society of Medical Hypnotists. I highly recommend the diagrams (for their informative value) and the photographs (for their humor value). A good overall introduction to the history of hypnotism, in duction methods, therapy with hypnosis, and why hypnotism is not more widely used. Very nice section describes Van Pelt's 'New Theory of Mental Illness' as well as a chapter on 'The Menace of Psycho-Analysis."
