The February Man: Evolving Consciousness and Identity in Hypnotherapy - Milton H. Erickson and Ernest Lawrence Rossi

Milton H. Erickson and Ernest Lawrence Rossi examine a landmark case in Ericksonian hypnotherapy, exploring how hypnosis, therapeutic suggestion and the development of an imagined relationship can influence a person's sense of identity and personal growth. The book presents Erickson’s work with a female patient through the figure of “the February Man,” using clinical material to investigate changes in consciousness, memory and behaviour. It is a specialist text for readers interested in Ericksonian hypnosis, psychotherapy and the therapeutic use of indirect suggestion.
