Frogs into Princes: Neuro Linguistic Programming (1979) is a book by Richard Bandler and John Grinder, co-founders of neuro-linguistic programming (NLP),[1] which is considered a pseudoscience.[2][3][4] The book is one of several produced from transcripts of their seminars from the late 1970s, and has sold more than 270,000 copies.[5] The book offers examples of Bandler and Grinder employing various NLP techniques, including the Meta Model, representational systems, rapport-building, anchoring, and reframing.
Preferred Representational Systems (PRS)
The authors emphasized the role of representational systems in how individuals process the world. They noted that people tend to rely on visual, auditory, kinesthetic (feeling), olfactory (smell), or gustatory (taste) systems to represent experiences. The book delves into how to identify someone's preferred system, the significance of eye-accessing cues and importance of matching sensory-based language to enhance rapport and communication.[6]
A review of research findings suggested many underlying principles presented in this book lacked rigorous scientific validation. Some of the underlying principles presented in this book, like the idea that people have preferred representation systems, the methods used to identify a client's preferred systems, or that therapists should match their clients' sensory predicates, are claimed to be crucial for effective communications and therapy. However, these principles lack solid support within the psychological research.[7]
Rewinding
Rewinding of traumatic memories was first described by Bandler and Grinder in Frogs into Princes[8] and further defined in Richard Bandler's book Using your brain—for a change.[9] This has inspired a number of therapeutic protocols however there are limited studies.[10][11][12][13]

As NLP became more popular, some research was conducted and reviews of such research have concluded that there is no scientific basis for its theories about representational systems and eye movements.

All of this leaves me with an overwhelming impression that the analyzed base of scientific articles is treated just as theater decoration, being the background for the pseudoscientific farce which NLP appears to be. Using "scientific" attributes, which is so characteristic of pseudoscience, is manifested also in other aspects of NLP activities... My analysis leads undeniably to the statement that NLP represents pseudoscientific rubbish
