Allen Carr’s Stop Smoking Book

Introduction
Allen Carr’s stop smoking book has helped many
  people quit smoking even though some people
  who read it claimed not to have had much
  success with it. The success to failure ratio is
  over 50% however.
Over 10 million books sold in 57 countries in
 more than 38 languages, Allen Carr wrote the
 book after his own 100-cigarette-a-day habit
 nearly drove him to the depths of despondency.
 He devised a plan to quit smoking and this plan
 is what he named The Easy Way to Stop
 Smoking.
Inside the Book
While I don’t agree that there is an easy way to
 quit any form of addiction, I would like to say
 the book has led millions to smoking cessation
 without any nervous and depressed feeling.
 This is because Carr helps tobacco addicts
 realize the mental reasons behind their craving,
 specifically details how to control the withdrawal
 symptoms, teaches them how to avoid
 instances when temptation might become too
 strong, and assists them to stay smoke-free.
Inside the Book(2)
Fearlessly, Carr delves into issues such as
 nicotine addiction; dispels the social myths that
 fan the embers of smoking; the false belief that
 a cigarette relieves stress; the role boredom
 plays in destroying efforts to stop; and the main
 reasons for failure. A smoker who religiously
 follows the recommendation of this book will no
 doubt throw his or her cigarette sticks away for
 good.
Inside the Book(3)
Like I earlier mentioned, about the first three
  quarters of the book is spent blowing up various
  myths and delusions about smoking (such as
  smoking relaxing you or getting rid of stress),
  which sets you up and gets you into the right
  frame of mind for actually quitting. At this point,
  the book wants you to continue smoking while
  you read it. In a nutshell, the easy way to stop
  smoking comprises two things: one, resolving
  never to smoke again, and two, not brooding
  about it anymore, celebrating instead.
Inside the Book(4)
Even though it sounds too simple, this approach
 will make more meaning to you after reading
 the first part of the book.
Finally, the book mentions two main reasons why
  you will fail: the pressure of other smokers, and
  having a bad day. Having been around for 20
  some years and being able to refine it with
  twenty years of feedback, I feel like this is one
  of the better books out there on non-smoking.
Testimonies from Celebrity Smokers Who
   Quit After Reading Allen Carr’s Book
“The Allen Carr Easy Way to Stop Smoking
  Program achieved for me a thing that I thought
  was not possible – to give up a thirty year
  smoking habit literally overnight. It was nothing
  short of a miracle.” – Anjelica Huston


“It was such a revelation that instantly I was freed
   from my addiction.”- Sir Anthony Hopkins
Testimonies from Celebrity Smokers Who
 Quit After Reading Allen Carr’s Book(2)
“Everyone who reads this books quits, and I quit
  too…”- Ellen Degeneres


“His method is absolutely unique, removing the
  dependence on cigarettes, while you are
  actually smoking. I’m pleased to say it has
  worked for many of my friends and my staff.”-
  Richard Branson
Disadvantages of Allen Carr’s Stop
         Smoking Book
Even though the book has helped many smokers
 to quit,it fails in one respect.According to a
 smoker who read the book,” We smoke
 because of the stress. He does not address the
 underlying cause AT ALL and just tries to scare
 us. No go … doesn’t work.”
The bone of contention of this particular reader
 was that the book failed to address the causes
 of stress and how to relieve stress without
 smoking since most people smoke because of
 stress.
About the Author
According to Wikipedia, Carr was born in London
 and “started smoking while doing National
 Service aged 18. He qualified as an accountant
 in 1958. Carr finally quit smoking on 15 July
 1983, aged 48, after a visit to a hypnotherapist.
 However, Carr claimed that it wasn’t the
 hypnotherapy itself that enabled him to quit – “I
 succeeded in spite of and not because of that
 visit” and “I lit up the moment I left the clinic and
 made my way home…”.
About the Author(2)
There were two key pieces of information that
 enabled Allen to quit later that day. First, the
 hypnotherapist told him smoking was “just
 nicotine addiction” which Allen had never
 perceived before that moment i.e. that he was
 an addict. Second his son John lent him a
 medical handbook which explained that the
 physical withdrawal from nicotine is just like an
 “empty, insecure feeling”
About the Author(3)
(“Packing it in the Easy Way” pp. 110–116,
  Penguin, 2005). He claims that these two
  realizations crystallized in his mind just how
  easy it was to stop and so then enabled him to
  follow an overwhelming desire to explain his
  method to as many smokers as possible.”
