Abstract

What constitutes a ‘history’? The Encyclopedia of NLP, a major work, running to 1,625 large-format pages spread across two volumes, includes a section headed ‘Historical Overview of NLP’. Yet within this entry, the part that recounts the ‘history’ is a single paragraph giving a very brief narrative account of how ‘NLP was originated by John Grinder… and Richard Bandler’ (Dilts & DeLozier 2000:850). Other accounts in the field, such as that by Peter Young (2004:61), are similarly sparse.
