Book Review: Ideomotor Signals for Rapid Hyptoanalysis

I'm currently reading Ewin and Eimer's Ideomotor Signals for Rapid Hypnoanalysis: A How-to Manual, which expands on LeCron and Cheek's 1968 classic Clinical Hypnotherapy.

I'm only partway through, but it's already the most lucid and directly useful hypnosis book I've ever read. Because people in a hypnotic trance are reluctant to speak, the techniques concentrate on the use of yes/no finger signals to allow the client to respond to questions, turning the hypnotic session from one where the hypnotist aims suggestions in a more or less hit-or-miss fashion into one with feedback at each important step. Highly recommended!
