Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of magnetism, not as it is understood by modern science, but as it was perceived by thinkers and practitioners of the 18th and 19th centuries. The author, a scholar and expert in the field, meticulously outlines the theory of human magnetism, drawing on the theories of physics prevalent in his time. He proposes that magnetism, like heat, light, and electricity, is a form of movement, a manifestation of energy, that can be transmitted through space in waves. The author then explores the art of magnetizing, outlining techniques for channeling and directing this force, and offering insights into the nature of the practitioner's role. He examines the polarity of the human body, emphasizing the concept of positive and negative poles and their influence on the transmission of magnetic energy. He then sets out practical instructions for the application of these principles, outlining techniques such as passes, imposition, stroking, and breathing. The book offers a rich blend of scientific observation, historical context, and practical instruction, revealing the depth of thought and practice that surrounded this intriguing and often controversial subject. By understanding the theories and techniques of human magnetism, readers can gain a deeper understanding of the complex interactions between individuals and the subtle forces that shape our experience of the world. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
