Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a comprehensive analysis of the life and work of Franz Anton Mesmer, an 18th-century physician who pioneered the practice of mesmerism, a form of healing that used magnets and other techniques to induce a trance-like state in patients. The author explores the historical context of mesmerism, its reception by the scientific and medical communities, and its influence on the development of modern psychology and psychiatry. The book also examines Mesmer's theories about the nature of the human body and mind, and his belief in the existence of a universal fluid that could be manipulated to cure disease. By shedding light on Mesmer's life and work, this book provides valuable insights into the history of medicine, the power of suggestion, and the complex relationship between science and belief.
