He presents to his colleagues his conclusions as to the limits and benefits of hypnosis as a major adjunct to psychotherapy and medicine. Hypnosis has long been a fascinating and baffiing subject. Clinical investigation has established its phenomena beyond a doubt. The explanation for these phenomena has remained a mystery. Yet many have sought to manipulate this function of the mind, some merely for purposes of personal aggrandizement or entertainment, others for the improvement of man's ills. In the tradition of medical therapy, both of the psyche and of the soma, Dr. Gindes has conducted sober investigation into the scientific principles of hypnotism and their usefulness as a method of alleviating human difficulties. While the book has been written with the psychiatrist's interest in view, the general practitioner, the college psychology student and the intelligent layman have not been neglected. Chapters on the history of hypnosis, its methodology, and many examples of its practical therapeutic application are included. Of particular interest is the discussion of new and original techniques.
