Publisher's Synopsis
Atkinsons' "Mind and Body" is a fine little medical work from the dawn of the 20th century. It speaks at length of faith healing, mesmerism, suggestion, hypnotism (strictly speaking in a medical setting) and the various healing rites of antiquity.It is full of secondary references and lengthy quotes and proposes the use of suggestion in varied therapeutic settings; some of which are still considered useful to this day.
