ABSTRACT
Of the various objections which in some quarters have been raised against hypnotism, the most influential and really most important have reference to its ethical or moral aspect. Some of these objections have already been noticed, but in view of the importance which the subject is at present assuming and the prominent place which hypnotism must occupy in therapeutics, it seems proper that a more definite statement of them should be made and discussed; that plain facts should be presented and sound reason and common sense invoked.
