This is a book and CD that use self-hypnosis for people who want to stop smoking. It looks at why people smoke and the rewards they get from smoking and offers a hypnosis method to assist people giving up. Written in a conversational style by a doctor specializing in medical hypnosis, the book and accompanying CD replicate the sessions that Dr. McCarthy has used successfully with smokers for many years to turn them into non-smokers.

The first track of the CD teaches people an easy-to-learn self-hypnosis replacement for smoking, and the second track is a powerful hypnotic commitment and pledge to stop smoking forever.
