As a coach, I am familiar with the need to tame our gremlins, but this book was the forerunner of this concept and so I read it out of interest. It's an easy and clear read and has some really good exercises for taming your Gremlin and helping others to tame theirs too! It was insightful and gave many good examples of the many different forms that our Gremlins take and how to deal with them.

I'm only about half way through this book, and am not a habitual reader of self-help stuff (my sister recommended this), but I'd have to give this one a serious thumbs-up. I made a funny connection to an old novel by Colin Wilson called "The Mind Parasites," which also posits the existence of a hostile voice within us that kills joy and sows self-doubt.I think it's interesting that the author distinguishes the Gremlin from Freud's superego and Berne's inner Parent -- as one of the reviewers said above, the notion that the Gremlin is really not us is very interesting and potentially liberating.
