A new edition of the revolutionary bestseller, with four million copies in print. Allen Carr's innovative Easyway method--which he discovered after his own 100-cigarette-a-day habit nearly drove him to despair--has helped millions kick smoking without feeling anxious and deprived. That's because he helps smokers discover the psychological reasons behind their dependency, explains in detail how to handle the withdrawal symptoms, shows them how to avoid situations when temptation might become too strong, and enables them to stay smoke-free. Carr discusses such issues as nicotine addiction; the social "brainwashing" that encourages smoking; the false belief that a cigarette relieves stress; the role boredom plays in sabotaging efforts to stop; and the main reasons for failure. With this proven program, smokers will be throwing away their packs for good.

Believe the Hype I think the reason why this book works is because so many people say it works. I read dozens upon dozens of excellent 5-star reviews of this book - but when I bought and read it, I was not all that impressed. It was repetitive, pedestrian and even annoying.

Only if you're ready - and it's not easy! No matter what the title may say or Mr. Carr's cheerleading may imply, quitting smoking is not easy. The book helps the smoker to look at smoking for what it is: an addiction. Slog through the first 40 pages or so, which can be repetitive and boring as Carr makes the case that his way works and other methods do not. He doesn't quite say HOW his method will work, just 40 pages telling you that it will work. Stick with it, though; the book gets better. Carr's book makes the case that there are no... more info
IT WORKS! It works... It's as simple as that. Read the book, follow the instructions and QUIT. I was a pack a day smoker for over 15 years and I was going to wait until I had given up smoking for one month before I wrote a review but after two an a half weeks of being smoke free, I am confident that I am officially a non-smoker. For the price of two packs of cigarettes you can quit for good. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain. Don't waste another minute.
