Download or read book Hypnosis and Imagination written by Robert Kunzendorf and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-26 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book's first three chapters-by Sheehan and Robertson; Wagstaff; Council, Kirsch, and Grant - conclude that three different factors turn imagination into hypnosis. The next three chapters-by Lynn, Neufeld, Green, Rhue, and Sandberg; Rader, Kunzendorf, and Carrabino; and Barrett-explore the hypnotic and the clinical significance of absorption in imagination. Three subsequent chapters-by Coe; Gwynn and Spanos; and Gorassini-examine the role of compliance and imagination in various hypnotic phenomena. Pursuing the possibility that some hypnotic hallucinations are experienced differently from normal images, the following two chapters-by Perlini, Spanos, and Jones; and Kunzendorf and Boisvert-focus on negative hallucinating, which reportedly "blocks out" perceptual reality. The remaining three chapters-by Wallace and Turosky; Crawford; and Persinger-pursue other physiological differences, and possible physiological connections, between hypnosis and imagination.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores the psychodynamic issues raised by different kinds of surgery, and how a patient's experience of surgery is influenced by the physical, cultural, and even mythic meanings of the body organ operated on. The chapters look at the psychological implications of, and emotional reactions to, most types of major surgery. Understanding of these issues, by the psychiatrist, the clinical psychologist, the surgeon, and nurse, can mean the difference between recovery and illness, health and chronic invalidism, and even life and death. The last chapter discusses the use of short term therapy to help the patient adjust to the trauma of surgery.
