Spiritualism
By A. Alpheus
Written in 1903, just sixty years after the word ‘hypnotism’ was coined, this
book explores the contemporary understanding of the nature, uses and
dangers of the technique. Hypnotism has been practiced for many
centuries, but it was in the mid-to-late nineteenth century that it became a
particularly fashionable way to explore the human mind. Although
understanding of the subject has evolved considerably over subsequent
years, this book remains a fascinating insight into a technique once thought
to be at the forefront of medical science. (summary by Stuart Bell)
