Product reviews for Innovations in NLP
The Milton H Erickson Foundation Newsletter, John D. Lentz D.Min. Shepherdsville, KY
Innovations in NLP grabbed me from the start and it was impressive to the finish. Actually, this book could become a volume to stimulate creativity.
Imagine a dream team of individuals and master NLP practitioners, each writing one of the very readable 23 chapters in this book. Then imagine those folks have a depth of understanding they want to share with you. Now you have an idea of what this book offers. It also is a handy reference that may guide the reader to become more resourceful. The authors of Innovations in NLP explain their innovative vision and provide rigorous criteria for determining what is new in NLP. Each chapter is self-contained and is readable cafeteria-style for particular problems and applications.
Included in the book are new approaches and ideas to stimulate thinking. The four parts of the book cover innovations in 1) Models, 2) Applications, 3) Tools, and 4) Communities. Each subsection, presented in practical and useful ways, discusses ideas that will help therapists in their practice.
The early chapters explain the concepts so thoroughly that even those with no background with NLP will understand the techniques. The later chapters assume a level of knowledge based on the earlier ones.
Some of the models in the section on Innovative Models were so stimulating that I often stopped to write down concepts I wanted to teach students or use with clients. An NLP Model with a capital "M" has a hypothesis that can he tested. which is, based in theory and can lead to distinct applications. This book offers much
more than techniques. It was a wonderful surprise to discover how the innovative models lend themselves to further innovations and precipitated fresh, creative thinking. The models include Meta-States for self-reflexive consciousness. LAB Profile to decode communications, Social Panoramas that change unconscious landscapes for better relationships, Symbolic Modelling for change through metaphor and language, and RESOLVE Model for generative change.
Applications covered coaching and entrepreneurial leadership, understanding stock market wizards, wealth building, overcoming addiction, stuttering, and medical problems. Some new tools also emerge from the Models. The Identity Compass tool is used for coaching and recruiting. MPA MindSonar, an X-ray machine for the mind is applied to coaching, team building, personnel management, and marketing. The jobEQ is employed in a business context. I was also pleasantly surprised at the applicability of the concepts, both at the clinical level and at the wider Community level where like-minded individuals come together. Covered are the Clean Community, the LAB Profile Community, and the Neuro-Semantic Community. The final chapters cover NLP research projects.
