| Publisher Description: Albert Moll is generally best known for his mainstream medical work with regards to sexology, but he is, in a secondary sense, quite well known for debunking and refuting spiritualism and mediums. This particular booklet, written later in his career, however, is semi-receptive of Christian Science and relegates it to an interesting facet of hypnosis and mesmerism.While his explanations are now dated and his observations usually labeled "the placebo effect," Moll manages here to discredit some instances of spiritual fraud while not explicitly attacking the occult, merely rationalizing phenomena then described as paranormal or supernatural. |
