Abstract: “One of Mesmer’s most important works. Writing twenty years after his
history-making Mémoire of 1779. Mesmer complains that his discovery has
had great difficulty in attaining acceptance in the medical world. He
hopes that the present treatise will correct mistaken notions and
clarify the relationship of animal magnetism to the principles of
physics. He also undertakes to explain the phenomenon of somnambulism
and its place in the practice of animal magnetism” (Crabtree no. 211).
