Psycho-analysis and Suggestion Therapy. By Dr. W. Stekel. (Regan Paul.

6s. 6d. net.)

Anything from the pen of Dr. Stekel must command attention. He is a pioneer in the field of the new psychology, and his work on the Conditions of Nervous Anxiety and their Treatment, recently published in England for the first time, assured his reputation- for those who were not aware of him before. In this small book "Dr. Stekel outlines the working technique and practical applications of the psycho-analytic treatment, as well as the methods of hypnosis and other forms of psycho-therapy. He is both frank and helpful in pointing out the limitations and dangers inherent in all .these thera- peutic methods, and his book will be found very useful as a guide to " Don't's " for beginners.
