  This book proposes a question a day to help you understand all the different facets of quitting. This is addiction, not a bad habit and the quitter needs all the help they can get! Some of the info is a little out of date but still a good book. I smoked 45 years and I am quit for over 2.5 years now…

  I also highly recommend the best quit site on the web [...] – it is a free site, for most states and a very non-judgmental place to get help from other quitters.

  I thought this book was great. The daily exersices helped keep me from smoking again and kept reminding me why I quit. I still have it and anytime I get the urge, I start reading it again.

  Having recently (2+ weeks) quit smoking cold turkey, I found that following this book has been less than helpful. It does not contain any new information (in other words, info which can’t be found for free on the Internet or through the American Lung Association or any number of other sources). The suggestions and exercises have caused me to obsess on the subject of smoking rather than distract me. While a few of the exercises were somewhat helpful, most led to cravings I might not have had if I hadn’t followed the suggestions. I understand the need to study past behavior and behavior patterns, but the suggestions/exercises in this book lead to a feeling of being stuck in the past rather than moving forward. Worse yet, on Day 5 of my quit the author suggests considering the patch as a method of helping me quit. By Day 5 of a cold turkey quit, the physical withdrawal is pretty much finished. Why add nicotine back into my system at that point? Buy something else with the money you save by not smoking…this isn’t worth it.
