Book Description

March 18, 1988 0898623383 978-0898623383
The rapid growth of interest in the role of hypnosis for memory enhancement has generated a significant amount of experimental work in recent years. This book is the first to provide in a single volume a comprehensive discussion of the conceptual and methodological foundations underlying studies of hypnosis and human memory. Written by leading figures in psychology and psychiatry, chapters explore the effects of hypnosis upon recall while integrating both forensic and clinical case examples.

3.0 out of 5 stars It's worth reading but not worth buying., October 29, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Hypnosis and Memory (Hardcover)
It's worth reading but not worth buying.

It provide in details all the theories and experiments with hypnosis in memory recall. The result is inconclusive. It's more suitable for universty students. If you're looking for a book to improve your memory with the help of hypnosis, you'll be disappointed. It's because it gives no instructions on how to do hypnosis.
