Editorial Reviews
Review
“There is no longer any doubt that hypnosis can help some people — and the book provides ample warning that it’s not a parlor game or panacea. With a tidy summary of hypnotism’s checkered past and a recap of Spiegel’s colorful career: a reasonable and readable state-of-the-art report.”
