Hypnosis: A Sesquicentennial Essay

Pages 301-314 | Received 07 Nov 1991, Published online: 31 Jan 2008
 

Abstract

The present paper views Coe's (1992) reflections on the sociopolitical interests in clinical and experimental hypnosis against the background of Braid's Neurypnology of 1843. Topics considered are: the significance of the label “hypnosis”; the controversy over state; the tension between credulity and skepticism; the problem of dissociation and automaticity; current theoretical conflicts; and the relationships between practitioners and researchers.
