Description
This booklet consists of two pamphlets, "The Physiology of Fascination" and "The Critics Criticised," which were published after Braid's work entitled Neurypnology. In "The Physiology of Fascination," Braid indicates that he had a perfectly clear concept of the suggestion technique even before Bernheim. He introduced the term mono-ideism to describe the condition in which the mind is possessed by a dominant idea. Braid also introduced the term psychophysiology to cover all those phenomena which result from the interaction of mind and body. Copy includes bookplate of Dr. Albert Moll.
