If only I had found this book 10 years ago! I have been drunk, fishing, driving to work, AND standing in front of smokers whilst drinking and it doesn't bother me.:)Not entirely sure how this book does it but who care's because now I'm free. Recommend this book to any smoker.

without meaning to sound OTT, this book changed my life. I had tried so many different ways to stop smoking - and felt such a failure, but reading this book changed my whole outlook. i don't want to smoke anymore. it's not hard. i'm not giving anything up..it was easy.
thank you Allen Carr.
ps. the last review mentioned the allen carrs clinics - since i stopped smoking i've met loads of people who've used the book or gone to the clinics. this is a good way of quitting.
Thank you Allen ... and Burt. February 6, 2008

I have never, ever missed cigarettes since I finished reading this book. I particularly like the way you are free to smoke until you're completely ready to quit. I have looked into this subject at length since I quit, and I reckon the only way you'll ever become completely ready is by reading this book. I always told myself I'd quit when I hit thirty. One day in my twenty-seventh year I was on the way back from the shops and I started coughing - and couldn't stop. I was doubled up like a jack knife. The next day I sat down to watch 'From Here to Eternity' with an arsenal of rollups on the arm of my chair. In an early scene, Burt Lancaster put a tube of dried vegetable matter in his mouth, lit it, and sucked. Heaven knows where the thought came from but it suddenly struck me as quite an odd thing to do. That's all I saw of the movie, and fifteen years later I still don't know how it ends. I went straight to the bookstore. From the first page Allen spoke to the smoker in me with devastating clarity. It was as if scales had fallen from my eyes! I did exactly what he said. There was no withdrawal pain and more importantly I have never had the slightest urge to smoke in any situation ever since. I don't believe that anyone with a modicum of sense that has read, understood and accepted the truth of Allen's book ever could want to smoke again! I particularly loved the irony of the fact that smokers smoke to try and feel like non-smokers. I won't even attempt to explain this here - Allen does it so much better - but trust me, if you follow his brilliant logic you'll realise it's true!
If you are a smoker and you've read this far, doesn't that mean that a pretty significant part of you wants to quit? When do you think that's going to happen? When life gets a bit less stressful? That day never comes, because, as Allen says, nicotine addiction creates more and more stress as the years go by. Isn't that why you're reading this?
It never 'just happens'. You can make it happen. If you want to, this is the easy way. What have you got to lose?
Just brilliant! So very, very clever! February 6, 2008

Like many smokers I thought I could never be free. After reading the book I am amazed that I ever kidded myself that I needed to do it in the first place. I think the way it is written really helps you to question what it is you actually get from smoking. For me I think the only thing that could make me carry on smoking is to go into utter and complete denial. No matter which way I look at it when I ask myself what is it I get from smoking, the answer is always the same simply nothing at all! Incidentally a couple of friends of mine also attended Allen Carr group sessions - needless to say they quit too!
