Franz Anton Mesmer arrived in Paris from Austria in February 1778 and established a medical practice which hailed him as one of the most remarkable men of his time. His skill lay in his theories and in his use of 'animal magnetism' to cure disease. Mesmer began a school of thought which spread across Europe and America, and enjoyed, at various stages, favour as a respected scientific and medical therapy, and disrepute as the tool of occultists, mystics and charlatans. Dr. Gauld has created a detailed and scholarly history of the phenomena, practice and theory of mesmerism, hypnotism and multiple personality disorder. The book traces the course of the mesmeric and hypnotic movements and gives special attention to the ideas and influence of certain leading figures. It considers the theories which developed to explain the phenomena and the uses and shortcomings of the technique in medical practice. Throughout the book, case histories and anecdotal accounts provide a fascinating insight into this controversial subject. The book also touches on the social and intellectual issues which influenced the progress and development of mesmerism and hypnotism. The work is extensively annotated and referenced. In his epilogue, Gauld discusses modern approaches to hypnotism and multiple personality disorder, and the role of hypnotism in clinical practice, and offers some ideas for understanding these intriguing phenomena. A History of Hypnotism is a wide-ranging and detailed history of the mesmeric and hypnotic movements and is an essential work of reference and scholarship in this field. A fascinating account, this important work will be of interest to psychiatrists, psychologists and medical historians, as well as to the general reader who wishes to learn more about this absorbing topic.
