Primitive Psycho-Therapy and Quackery - Robert Means Lawrence - Bog

Bag om Primitive Psycho-Therapy and Quackery

Primitive Psycho-Therapy and Quackery is a classic psychology essay by Robert Means Lawrence. Certain historic modes of healing, including the use of medical amulets and charms, which have been regarded from early times as magical remedies, belong properly to the domain of Psychical Medicine. For the therapeutic virtues of medical amulets are not inherent in these objects, but are due to the influence exerted by them upon the imaginative faculties of the individuals who employ them. They afford powerful suggestions of healing. In this volume the writer has sought to emphasize the fact that the efficiency of many primitive therapeutic methods, and the success of charlatanry, are to be attributed to mental influence.
