Hypnosis : Developments in Research and New Perspectives, Paperback / softback Book

Hypnosis : Developments in Research and New Perspectives Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

This thorough revision of the first edition, updates and expands, with 25 percent new material, what was generally recognized as a major survey of contemporary scientific research in hypnosis.

In this edition, also a classic, the editors include three new essays in modern hypnosis studies.

They also provide a new conceptual framework--cognitive, ego-psychological, and phenomenological--with which to examine hypnosis. This edition is divided into six sections--Theoretical and Historical Perspectives, New Theories, Surveys of Broad Areas, Lines of Individual Research, Individual Researches within Specific Areas, and Anticipations for Future Research.

The entire book was completely revised in the light of additional research since publication of the original edition.

Thirteen of the twenty chapters in the first edition were updated by their authors, six so extensively that they amount to new chapters, with changes in title and order of authors in the case of coauthored chapters. Hypnosis: Developments in Research and New Perspectives is intended for researchers in hypnosis and clinical practitioners in medicine and psychology.

The focus, as indicated by the changed subtitle, is on developments since publication of the original editions: empirical studies, experiments with physiological indicators of hypnosis, and theoretical uses associated with use of hypnosis as a research tool.

Altogether, this second edition is a valuable overall guide to an intriguing topic.
