| Summary |
"This volume is not issued in illustration or in defence of the therapeutic efficiency of hypnotism--of the value of induced somnambulism in the treatment of physical disease. The author is under the necessity of confining himself largely to a consideration of the importance of suggestive treatment in moral obliquity, and in the development and exaltation of mind power. With the subject thus narrowed to the psychic field, a single direction will be followed in its discussion, viz., that of personal experience in this field. No claim to originality is advanced beyond the thought that post-hypnotic suggestion may with great advantage be made supplementary to the religious training of degenerate or vicious children, and that suggestibility may be extensively utilized as a contributory factor to moral regeneration in schools, reformatories, and prisons. The experiments have been made independently of what others are doing, and in premeditated ignorance of recent works on hypnotism. The conclusions reached are therefore unconnected with those of other investigators"--Preface. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved) |
