| Summary: | The Handbook of Clinical Hypnosis is divided into sections that cover general clinical considerations, hypnosis theoretical models, hypnotic techniques, specific clinical applications, and contemporary issues. The book is intended for anyone who wishes to learn about clinical hypnosis. It introduces the novice hypnotherapist to the basics of hypnotherapy and the many potential uses of hypnosis. It is thus suited for use as a textbook for graduate and postgraduate courses and workshops. For the trained hypnotherapist, and even the seasoned clinician, the "Handbook" can be used as a reference volume that contains many suggestions for applying techniques and strategies relevant to the day-to-day work of the practitioner. Hypnosis researchers and theoreticians will also find value in this book. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2004 APA, all rights reserved).
