Synopsis

Mesmer and his Disciples is a book written by Frank Podmore that delves into the life and practices of Franz Anton Mesmer, an 18th-century physician who developed a theory of animal magnetism that he believed could cure various ailments. The book also explores the influence of Mesmer's ideas on his disciples, who continued to develop and promote his theories long after his death. Podmore examines the scientific and cultural context in which Mesmer worked, including the influence of Enlightenment thought and the rise of spiritualism. The book also includes detailed accounts of Mesmer's treatments, which involved the use of magnets and other tools to manipulate the body's energy fields. Overall, Mesmer and his Disciples provides a fascinating insight into a little-known chapter of medical history and the enduring legacy of Mesmer's ideas.THIS 22 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Mediums of the 19th Century Part 1, by Frank Podmore.
