The key ideas of Erickson's approach may be known to many, but the actual implementation of these ideas is still not apparent in many cases. Removing this gap between knowing and implementing has been the goal of Gilligan's work throughout his career. This book has obviously been written from his heart with two goals: one is the desire to help therapists truly understand the paradigm Erickson created, and the other is to help therapists treat clients in the most positive and health-oriented manner.
