About this book
George Barton Cutten, president of Acadia University, surveys mental healing across history: cures credited to the power of mind over body, from early civilizations through Christianity, relics and shrines, healers, talismans, amulets, charms, the royal touch, Mesmer and the healers of the nineteenth century. The 1911 book defines the term broadly, whether the cure is credited to deity, spirits, other people or the patient's own mind, and argues that knowing older movements shows modern ones are not new. Illustrations include Valentine Greatrakes, Mesmer and Mary Baker Eddy.
