This book analyzes the growing presence of hypnosis in academic
settings around the world and its implications for research,
healthcare and education. The increasing volume of scientific
research on hypnosis and its clinical applications to treat health
conditions such as pain, anxiety, trauma and depression has renewed
the interest for this kind of practice in different disciplines,
such as medicine, psychology, dentistry and nursing. As a result of
this growing interest, there is an increasing number of spaces
occupied by hypnosis in universities of different countries
compared to what occurred in recent decades. Nevertheless, what
this means, at various levels, is still far from being deciphered,
due to the absence of more detailed research and surveys involving
a larger number of institutions, students, faculty and research
groups. This volume intends to shed a new light into the
discussions about the growing presence of hypnosis in academia by
bringing together contributions of practitioners and researchers
working with hypnosis in academic settings in ten countries from
different parts of the world: Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Cuba,
France, Hungary, Israel, Portugal, Russia and Switzerland. The
discussions presented in these contributions revolve around four
axes of analysis: the historical trajectory of hypnosis within
academic institutions; the epistemological nature of hypnosis and
its relationships with other fields of knowledge; the importance of
scientific research for the current development of hypnosis and its
clinical applications; and how teaching and training in hypnosis is
organized in universities today, with its ethical and legal
implications in different cultural contexts. Hypnosis in Academia:
Contemporary Challenges in Research, Healthcare and Education will
be a great resource for both researchers and practitioners working
with hypnosis, and a valuable source of information for human and
social scientists in general interested in understanding how a once
discredited practice regained respect from the academic community
and is now a growing topic of interest for scholars and clinicians
all around the world.
