Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury is a dystopian soft science fiction novel that was first published in 1953. It is set in a society where censorship is prevalent, and moronic citizens learn only from television. Most books are banned and critical thought is suppressed. The central character, Guy Montag, is employed as a "fireman" (which, in this case, means "book burner"). 451 degrees Fahrenheit is stated as "the temperature at which book-paper catches fire, and burns …". It was originally published as a shorter novella, The Fireman, in the February 1951 issue of Galaxy Science Fiction. A film adaptation, by François Truffaut, was released in 1966, and another is anticipated.

'I confess that reading his essays seems to me to have enlarged my understanding of the Shakespearean pattern, which, after all, is quite the main main thing.' - T.S. Eliot
I have used this on and off for a long time and it certainly does the business, but it's important to understand that the whole hypnosis thing only works if you allow yourself to relax and go with it. It's not a magical thing where you switch the cd on and suddenly you are in a trance. If you listen attentively thinking 'why isn't anything happening yet?' then it simply won't work. It's like lying awake in bed constantly asking yourself 'why aren't I asleep yet?'.
