Although the name 'hypnotism' was first coined in 1850, the idea of hypnotising someone is thousands of years old and can be traced back to Ancient Egypt and beyond. This fascinating volume contains a complete guide to hypnotism, looking at its history, various techniques, mesmerism, mind-reading, scientific explanations, and much more. Contents include: "History of Hypnotism", "Mesmer", "What is Hypnotism", "Theories of Hypnotism", "Animal Magnetism", "The Neurosis Theory", "Suggestion Theory", "How to Hypnotise", "Dr. Cocke's Method", "Dr. Flint's Method", "The French Method at Paris", "At Nancy", "The Hindoo Silent Method", etc. "Complete Hypnotism" is highly recommended for those with an interest in hypnotism and related subjects, and it would make for a worthy addition to collections of allied literature. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.
