Back cover copy

The Handbook of Contemporary Clinical Hypnosis is an authoritative resource designed to underpin the use of clinical hypnosis within the medical and psychological fields, and to support training and research in the area. Published in association with the British Society of Clinical and Academic Hypnosis (BSCAH), book draws on the expertise and experience of a wide range of health professionals including doctors, dentists, nurses, psychologists and counsellors, all of whom use hypnosis techniques in their practice. Theoretical rigour is provided by contributions from academics currently conducting research into hypnosis and its applications. This unique collection is an invaluable resource for those interested in acquiring the basic skills of hypnosis, as well as those exploring more advanced applications in specialized areas. Written by clinicians for clinicians, The Handbook of Contemporary Clinical Hypnosis is the definitive reference text for our current understanding of hypnosis and its application in clinical settings. “Coming from the capable hands of editors Brann, Owens and Williamson, this book will be a valuable source of information for those interested in hypnosis as a serious and effective tool in clinical settings.” Claudia Nielsen, Psychotherapist and Vice-President of the Scientific and Medical Network, UK “The Handbook of Contemporary Clinical Hypnosis highlighted for me what is often lacking in most hypnosis works: a truly integrative effort to enable the clinician to appreciate the theoretical and experimental underpinnings of the clinical techniques. Beginning with an outstanding introduction and continuing with an excellent series of chapters elucidating the different areas and techniques of hypnosis, the various authors share their approaches in a succinct yet comprehensive manner. I am delighted to recommend this contribution to the hypnosis literature.” Shaul Livnay PhD, Chairperson, The Committee for Educational Programs in Europe, European Society of Hypnosis, Israeli Society of Hypnosis
