Rating: Summary: 20 years free Review: Hey it's easy to quit smoking-I know-I've done it a hundred times. Such was my life untill I read Roger's book 20 years ago and have been habit free since. It is by far the very best book on the subject that I have ever read and I've read a bunch. I've just re-read recently and the info is timlessly effective in 2001. I keep several copies on hand to give to all my smoke-struggling friends.
Rating: Summary: From hopeless to confident Review: I actually used Jacquelyn's prior book, Smokenders, but I assume this one is even better. I was hopelessly addicted to 1 pack a day and had no luck quitting despite many serious attempts. After failing with both gum and hypnosis, I discovered this book and it worked! My failures left me thinking that I might not have the will to *ever* beat smoking. Amazingly, and I still can't explain exactly what happened, after reading half the book and doing the exercises, I believed I could quit smoking, and did! Since then I have purchased the book for people in my life who express a desire to stop smoking. One of the things I liked most about the book is it never instructed me to put down the cigarettes. In fact, I read half the book with cigarette in hand until something clicked upstairs and I could let them go. This book works...!
Rating: Summary: What, me quit? Review: I hadn't even thought seriously about quitting when I first read this book. Ms. Rogers has such an understanding and sympathetic view of the smoker that it's hard not to become encouraged by her method. I followed her instructions to the "T" and lo and behold, 6 weeks after I first read her book, I quit...and it was easy. I never would have imagined it!
Rating: Summary: Will Take You From "Maybe" to "I Can Do It!" Review: I love this book; it was the catalyst to my quit. It's written for smokers - it never preaches - just gently takes you down the path to achieving the goal of being a non-smoker. You have to "work the program", but it's fun - and, if you do all the exercises etc. - you will feel you finally have power over your smoking. She gives you the tools to see you though too. I've bought several copies of this book to give away to smokers who might be considering quitting - this book will help make up anybodys mind if they are afraid of quitting.

Rating: Summary: My miracle book! Review: I quit after 15+ years of smoking. I read this book 2 times before quitting and then stopped 2 years ago and haven't looked back since! I was the most addicted person I know. I mailed my book to one brother who used it to quit. (We both are just amazed by this) He mailed it to my other brother... We shall see!!! I would buy these for any smoker I know. I feel like Ms Rogers gave me a new life! You should see how healthy I look! No more sore throats or headaches.
Rating: Summary: A Doctor's perspective Review: I'm a Medical Doctor and used to be a pack-a-day smoker (paradoxical, uh), also tried unsuccessfully several times quiting from cold turkey to using the gum in repeated ocassions. Then I decided to try the patch and my fiance got me the book. I've been smoke free for more than a year and I think I wouldn't be able to do it without the book (patch alone). The book focused on changing your scheme on smoking, something which we smokers don't realized how disturbed it is and will become in the future. You won't imagine how different your life is without the cigarrettes. I love it. If you are one of those who say as i used to "..but i enjoy smoking" this book is for you! Andres A. Gonzalez, MD
Rating: Summary: A must-read for all prospective former smokers Review: My wife was not all that convinced of quitting when I gaver her the book, she started reading it mostly to humor me, she decided to go thru with it about halfway into the book. It's been 3 years and she hasn't gone back. Get this book.
