BOOK EXCERPT:
Mesmerism in India and its Practical Application in Surgery and Medicine is authored by Dr. James Esdaile. The book is an examination of mesmerism, also known as animal magnetism, and its use in India, this title allows readers the opportunity to learn about a popular theory that never gained scientific recognition. Mesmerism is a theory based on the beliefs of German, Frank Mesmer, that a natural force exists in the world that can be manipulated to aid in medical procedures, akin to hypnotism. Author James Esdaile was a medical practitioner and a believer in the principles of mesmerism. This title is thus a detailed examination of his use of mesmerism in India for a variety of medical purposes. The book begins with a response to the critics of mesmerism, of which there were many even at the time of the work's original publication. The author proceeds to discuss the history of mesmerism, the mesmeric processes, purported outcomes of mesmeric procedures, and a detailed overview of the many specific mesmeric surgeries conducted by Esdaile, concluding with an appendix. Mesmerism in India is an interesting book about a medical practice that never gained widespread legitimacy. Esdaile has kept his writing relatively brief, which brings this title within reach of the casual reader. Whether you are drawn to this work as a skeptic or as a believer, the content will surely prove to be illuminating. James Esdaile's Mesmerism in India and its Practical Application in Surgery and Medicine is one of the few books to deal with the topic of mesmerism in detail, particularly its application in India. It is a fascinating overview of this controversial and unproven theory, and one that will delight readers interested in fringe medical procedures.

BOOK EXCERPT:
"An obsessive, mystical, terrifying, and even phantasmagorical exploration of anesthesia’s shadowy terra incognita." —The New Yorker Anesthetize: to render insensible First there’s the injection, then the countdown—and next thing you know, you’re awake. Anesthesia: The Gift of Oblivion and the Mystery of Consciousness is the story of the time in between, an exploration of that most crucial and baffling gift of modern medicine: the disappearing act that enables us to undergo procedures that would otherwise be impossibly, often fatally, painful. In the past 150 years, anesthesia has made surgical intervention routine, from open–heart surgery to the facelift. But how much do anesthesiologists really know about what happens when their patients go under? Can we hear and retain what’s going on? Is pain still pain if we don’t remember it? How does the unconscious mind deal with the body’s experience of being sliced open and ransacked—and how can we help ourselves through it all? Kate Cole–Adams weaves her own personal experiences with surgery and its aftermath with the explorations and personal accounts of others, doctors and patients alike—accounts of people who wake under the knife, who experience traumatic reactions, dreams, hallucinations, and submerged memories—accounts that evoke and illuminate the provisional nature of the self. Haunting, lyrical, sometimes shattering, Cole–Adams leavens science with personal experience, and brings an intensely human curiosity to the unknowable realm beyond consciousness.
