[22-681] The dj front flap reads, ?Charcot ? neurologist extraordinary, father of diagnosis and treatment of hysteria and pioneer in medical hypnosis. A man of overpowering vision and magnetic personality?.Far ahead of his time, inspirer of Sigmund Freud and Pierre Janet---his influence looms large in today?s most forward-looking work in clinical psychology and the treatment of traumatic neuroses. Little known is Charcot?s momentous contribution in the realm of somnambulism, faith-healing, the whole unmapped world of the unconscious. What Professor Owen has to say about Charcot will startle and unsettle you, as the author unravels and knits up again the tangled threads of Charcot?s mind and thought while he wrestled ith the innermost lives of his patients, most of them women. Charcot, with his piercing eyes and his mane of white hair, gazing into the eyes and deep down into the souls of his patients, is a fascinating, mysterious figure, a giant in nineteenth century France.? The author, Dr. A. R. G. Owen, is known for his psychical research and interest in the paranormal and parapsychology. Fascinating read!. Seller Inventory # 000549
