Seller's Description:
Very Good. Size: 9x6x1; Hardcover and dust jacket. Jacket clipped. Good binding and cover. Jacket rubbed. Clean, unmarked pages. xxiii, 152 p., 24 cm. "As influential as Franz Anton Mesmer's theories and observations were in the development of modern scientific hypnosis, it is remarkable that Dr. Mesmer's own accounts of his startling therapeutic methods have never before, with the exception of brief excerpts, appeared in English. Yet George Bloch's Mesmerism is the first English compilation and translation of the works of this 18th century Austrian physician whose radical theories of healing are of great contemporary interest." From the library Dr. Owen Hannaway. Hannaway was director of the Center for the History and Philosophy of Science at Johns Hopkins University. He authored numerous books and served as an editor of academic magazines in the history of science. Partial list of publications: Chemists and the Word: The Didactic Origins of Chemistry (1975); Observation, Experiment, and Hypothesis in Modern Physical Science (1985); The Evolution of Technology (1989); Science and the Practice of Medicine in the Nineteenth Century (1994); and The Foundations of Modern Science in the Middle Ages: Their Religious, Institutional and Intellectual Contexts (1996).
