Time for a Change by Richard Bandler
After reading and populating shelves at home with books on NLP, hypnosis and therapy I still remember those two days -one year ago or more maybe- I read this one amidst cracks of laughter. Honestly, I did not learn anything, just NOTHING, as far as my "conscious mind" is involved, however I was amused to no end and challenged to GO ON LEARNING, and on and on, it gave me a powerful boost and ignited my desire and enthusiasm to no end, retrospectively, I think this book might well deserve the sub-title of "The spirit of NLP", although this title is beared already by another that also deserves it.

Core Transformation by Connirae Andreas, Tamara Andreas
This book focuses on allowing us to uncover the unconscious motivations that underline "bad" habits, through a process called Core Transformation. Its origins are in Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), but don't let that make you shy away from it. Through this process, which you can do to yourself by a self-dialogue while in a meditative state (although doing it with a partner is probably more effective), you can begin to understand why you do the things you do.

Turtles All the Way Down : Prerequisites to Personal Genius. -- John Grinder, Judith Delozier
The term "new code" refers to 1987, when this book came out. At that time, the ideas in this book departed quite strongly from the original "mechanistic" NLP framework. Today, some of the messages from this book still aren't "integrated" in mainstream NLP (which is a "buy" reason). Focus of this book lies on perceptual positions; trusting your unconscious (+ focusing your attention), and working with patterns (+ how to interrupt them). These are 3 messages that Grinder still stresses today (in 2001)

You will find things in here that are new to you, although not a great many, a few.
It is good!

One of the few books that focus on NLP as it was meant to be If one would make of the great NLP modellers, Robert Dilts will certainly be part of the list. As well as he would make it to the top 5 list of NLP's great writers.

Reframing : Neuro-Linguistic Programming and the Transformation of Meaning. -- Richard Bandler, et al
Is the glass half-empty or half-full?
What we think is not as important as HOW we think about it and there is a powerful tool to make sure we think it right - it is called a Reframing. In their book, Grinder and Bendler are on their best. I rate it as an absolute MUST for anyone who is interested in NLP or simply wants to become a better communicator.

Thought Contagion : How Belief Spreads Through Society by Aaron Lynch
Why do certain ideas become popular? The naive view is that it's because they're true, or at least justified. This fascinating book, influenced by evolutionary biology and epidemiology, is the first full-scale examination of some of the other reasons. Consider Aaron Lynch's example of optimism--it may not be true or warranted, but it tends to prevail because optimists tend to have more children to pass along their outlook to. Sometimes, Lynch points out, there is a paradoxical but predictable expansion-contraction pattern to the social spread of ideas. If nothing else, lobbyists need to look into this stuff to see which side their bread is really buttered on.

The 48 Laws of Power by Joost Elffers, Robert Greene
Learning the game of power requires a certain way of looking at the world, a shifting of perspective," writes Robert Greene. Mastery of one's emotions and the arts of deception and indirection are, he goes on to assert, essential. The 48 laws outlined in this book "have a simple premise: certain actions always increase one's power ... while others decrease it and even ruin us."

The laws cull their principles from many great schemers--and scheming instructors--throughout history, from Sun-Tzu to Talleyrand, from Casanova to con man Yellow Kid Weil. They are straightforward in their amoral simplicity: "Get others to do the work for you, but always take the credit," or "Discover each man's thumbscrew." Each chapter provides examples of the consequences of observance or transgression of the law, along with "keys to power," potential "reversals" (where the converse of the law might also be useful), and a single paragraph cleverly laid out to suggest an image (such as the aforementioned thumbscrew); the margins are filled with illustrative quotations. Practitioners of one-upmanship have been given a new, compre...
