Many NLP Practitioners believe that only techniques matter. Their books and trainings present the student with a mass of useful facts, but with little integration of the material and this is at a time when we are increasingly overwhelmed by more and more information, and have less and less time to digest it. As a result we are piling up and compartmentalising the data we receive, but failing to recognise its underlying principles.Understanding NLP overcomes this problem by providing a truly coherent model of NLP. Integrating into its structure tools from other change systems, and from drama, story telling and mythology, it utilises the pattern of human learning to produce a completely systematic way of investigating life. In creating a paradigm for understanding change, it examines aspects such as: Rapport; the Meta Mirror; the Four Realities Model; Batesons Levels of Learning; the Satir Categories; Outcome Setting; the NLP Language Model; Modal Operators; Beliefs; Modelling. Exploring four archetypal worldviews and three basic theoretical models, Understanding NLP is an essential resource for both NLP beginners and Practitioners, presenting a wealth of practical NLP exercises and applications while revealing their underlying significance.
