Description
The Complete Writings of James Braid brings together for the first time all of the works of James Braid, the pioneer who coined the term "hypnotism" and founded hypnotherapy. This comprehensive collection includes Braid's own writings, as well as a previously unpublished manuscript written just before his death, in which he reviews his life's work for the French Academy of Sciences.
Also included are excerpts from the writings of Dr. John Milne Bramwell, one of Braid's most devoted followers, who provides valuable insights into Braid's life and work. The editor has added detailed prefatory essays and commentary to help modern readers understand the significance of Braid's contributions to the field.
This edition offers a unique opportunity for scholars and enthusiasts alike to explore the life and work of James Braid, one of the most important figures in the history of hypnosis.
