Hypnotism and Suggestion

Abstract

IN the preface the author tells the reader that the objects he had in view writing this book were to explain the technique of experimental hypnotism and suggestive therapeutics, and at the same time to endeavour to divest the subject of the air of mystery with which it is popularly invested. In an introductory chapter he briefly alludes to certain general questions connected with hypnotism. He considers that telepathy is at present “nonproven,” and, further, he does not believe in, a “magnetic force” for curative purposes.
