Description: PSYCHOLOGY, HYPNOTISM, PERSONAL MAGNETISM and CLAIRVOYANCE, by William Abner Barnes. Self-Published, Boston, Mass, copyright 1898, fourth edition (so stated), c.1900. Original hardcovers, gray cloth covered boards, front cover titled in black, 5x8 inches, 112 pages. Illustrated with 8 b&w photographic plates. Sections include: Psychology, Hypnotism, Personal Magnetism, and Clairvoyance, with Testimonials at the rear. The photographic plates, some showing Dr. Barnes at work, are convincing, convincing me that I would never want to be under his hypnotic spell! GOOD condition, the covers have some soiling, offsetting / toning, a few small marks, and some wear to the spine ends and corner tips, but are original and still doing their job well; internally, the pages are bright, clean, clear and unmarked. The eight plates are all in very good condition. A solid, presentable copy of this book from 1900. From the Preface: ******The prime object of this little volume is to set forth clearly and concisely the value of psychology, hypnotism, and clairvoyance as practically applied to education, morality, spirituality, medicine, surgery, business, and to the development and exercise of personal magnetism. During many years devoted to research, study, and instructing, the author has controlled thousands of persons, and thereby demonstrated beyond reasonable doubt the vast amount of good results obtainable through properly directed mental force... Beston, Mass., June, 1900.****** Though POD copies are common, the vintage 1900 edition of this book, self-published by the author, has become almost impossible to find.
