About Paul McKenna
Paul McKenna is a British hypnotist, behavioural scientist, television and radio broadcaster and author of self-help books. McKenna won the case, and the newspaper was ordered to pay £75,000 in costs. He won the Television and Radio Industries Club Award for Best TV Newcomer in 1994. Revans’s accredited status was revoked in 2005 when it was discovered that students did not require the normal level of dedicated research in order to earn their degrees, and instead a legal loophole was being exploited. The school exempted McKenna from coursework based on his prior work, and his dissertation was producing a series of self-help tapes that eventually became a book, Change Your Life in Seven Days.
