Description | Forel was one of the European pioneers of turn-of-the-century hypnotism. A contemporary of Vogt and Moll, Professor Forel gives us a detailed scientific look at the mechanisms of hypnosis, including induction methods, hypnotic amnesia, hallucinations, suggestion, false memory, and the use of hypnosis for therapeutic purposes. Forel's book may be regarded as a resevoir wherein all the knowledge of hypnosis prior to Freud is stored. A must for the serious student or collector. |
