Description: This book is an impressive combination of clinical and scientific applications of hypnosis in the 1950s. In 1956, there was a great divide between clinical and experimental research. That this book combines the two really makes it a unique and special book. The clinical chapters make use of the work of famous clinicians such as Milton Erickson, who was a groundbreaking pioneer in clinical hypnosis and psychiatry in general. The theoretical and experimental aspects of this book delve into the very early work of Martin Orne and his “trance logic“ paradigm. The chapter by Theodore Sabin presents what is a very early incarnation of the modern socio-cognitive theory of hypnosis. At the same time, the book is refreshingly free of excessive jargon and can be understood by the casual yet seriously interested reader. For its age, the book is overall in excellent condition. The dust jacket has some minor rips and tears added edges as pictured. The binding is in pristine condition. There are small pencil markings at the front and end covers of the book. This is a very special and unique item that would be suitable for the collector of books about hypnosis or psychology in general. See all pictures for details. Message me with questions.
