"Just the facts, ma'am." Sgt. Joe Friday.

From the Preface - Material for this book, whether it describes fact or fiction, has come from many sources: books, professional journals, magazines, lectures, newspaper articles, and personal experiences. The book attempts to be an "everything you wanted to know about hypnotism." It takes a good stab at its goal. Abbreviated table of contents: Yesterday, today, and tomorrow Hypnosis and dehypnosis Characteristics of the tests of hip gnosis Hypnosis and personality The generation of hypers The violation of all and the moral question Hypnotherapy - "mental" problems Hypnotherapy - "organic" problems Dangers, fictional and real Hypnosis and quackery Et cetera Theories Conclusion I suspect he did a little word invention so he could function.
