An interesting and significant if not always "scientific" examination of mesmerism with an additional authorial introduction to the 2nd Ed.

One of the appeals of mesmerism to the pseudoscientific enthusiast and a contributing factor to its pre-eminent popularity was the ability to apply it to nearly any phenomena and gain some result or other.
