Synopsis

Sleep-Walking and Hypnotism is a book written by D. Hack Tuke that explores the phenomenon of sleepwalking and hypnotism. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on sleepwalking and the second part discussing hypnotism. In the first part of the book, Tuke examines the history of sleepwalking and its various causes, including heredity, physical conditions, and mental states. He also discusses the different types of sleepwalking and the behaviors that are commonly associated with them. Tuke provides case studies and examples to illustrate his points and offers insights into the psychological and physiological aspects of sleepwalking.The second part of the book delves into hypnotism, which was a relatively new practice at the time of the book's publication. Tuke provides a detailed overview of the history of hypnotism, including its origins in animal magnetism and its development into a medical practice. He also discusses the various techniques used in hypnotism and the different states of consciousness that can be induced through hypnosis.Throughout the book, Tuke emphasizes the importance of understanding the underlying causes and mechanisms of sleepwalking and hypnotism. He argues that these phenomena are not simply bizarre or abnormal behaviors, but rather are rooted in the complex workings of the human mind and body. Overall, Sleep-Walking and Hypnotism is a comprehensive and insightful exploration of two fascinating and often misunderstood topics. It offers valuable insights into the nature of consciousness, the workings of the mind, and the mysteries of the human psyche.Discusses Both Spontaneous And Artificially Induced Somnambulism As Well As Double Consciousness, Which Tuke Relates To The Two Sides Of The Brain.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
