About this book

Hidden Depths: The Story of Hypnosis by Waterfield, Robin. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780333779491.

With wit and verve Robin Waterfield brings the bizarre story of hypnotism to life. A lively mixture of popular history, science and psychology, Hidden Depths is the definitive work on hypnosis. From its origins as animal magnetism, as practised by Franz Anton Mesmer, to its modern-day use as a health cure and a form of entertainment, hypnosis has always been controversial. The outlandish claims that its zealous believers make are only matched in intensity by the howls of derision that they provoke from sceptics.
