Covert Hypnosis – An Operators Manual Review

What do you do when you are asked to write a book on hypnosis? Well most of us would refuse, simply because we are not hypnotists and we do not know hypnosis. So, we cannot write a book on the subject, no matter what the price offered is. Well, what would, then the case be, if you actually buy a book that is utter waste of other , your time and your money, and actually pay a decent sum of money for it. Well, you couldn’t do much, could you?

Covert Hypnosis –An Operators Manual by Kevin Hogan is one such book. When we started reviewing this book, we expected it to be of some decent quality as regards the hypnosis techniques that were prescribed and the different ways of hypnotizing people that were taught. We had expected the book to meet some necessary parameters that we had set so that we could at least give some recommendation to the readers. The book and the author, however, seem to have different plans.

The book failed miserably at all the different parameters that we had set for the review. The content of the book is common and repetitive. You can find the same content in any book on hypnosis that you pick from a free e book site. The techniques that are prescribed in the book are also repetitive and often, too obvious to work. The language of the book is confusing and a complete lack of flow of thoughts prevails throughout the book. If we were to describe the book in two words, they would be ‘completely useless’. And this phrase too is mild for this book. We would recommend this book only to those people who have no interest in hypnosis, and have tons of cash with them and want to pour the cash down some black hole. The people with genuine interest in hypnosis give this book a miss.
