Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

This introductory book by Charles Baudouin covers the psychological
subjects of suggestion and autosuggestion in supreme depth. A
subject of great interest to Baudouin, Suggestion is shown to
compose of a variety of techniques, used in a variety of settings
clinical and non-clinical. Baudouin's belief was that suggestion,
used responsibly and correctly, could be of great therapeutic
benefit to patients suffering from a variety of mental disorders
and even physical diseases. Furthermore, Boudouin was of the
opinion that patients could be encouraged to suggest beneficent
notions to themselves. Such autosuggestion forms the second half of
the book, wherein Boudouin examines ways in which a patient can
authoritatively and reliably influence his subconsciousness with
autosuggestion, to the enrichment and benefit of his or her life
circumstances, outlook, and attainments.
Originally published in 1922, this early work on Studies in
Psychoanalysis is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the
history of psychoanalysis with much of the information still being
useful and practical today. Many of the earliest books,
particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now
extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing
these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions,
using the original text and artwork.
The articles in this collection are a sampling of some of the
research presented during the conference "Stochastic Analysis and
Related Topics", held in May of 2015 at Purdue University in honor
of the 60th birthday of Rodrigo Banuelos. A wide variety of topics
in probability theory is covered in these proceedings, including
heat kernel estimates, Malliavin calculus, rough paths differential
equations, Levy processes, Brownian motion on manifolds, and spin
glasses, among other topics.
Understanding legal rules not as determinants of behavior but as
points of reference for conduct, this volume considers the ways in
which rules are invoked, referred to, interpreted, put forward or
blurred. It also asks how both legal practitioners and lay
participants conceive of and participate in the construction of
facts and rules, and thus, through decisions, defenses, pleas,
files, evidence, interviews and documents, actively participate in
law's life. With attention to the formulation of notions such as
person, evidence, intention, cause and responsibility in the course
of legal practices, Legal Rules in Practice provides the outlines
of a praxiological anthropology of law - an anthropology that
focuses on words, concepts and reasoning as actively used to solve
conflicts with the help of legal rules. As such, it will appeal to
sociologists, anthropologists and scholars of law with interests in
ethnomethodology, rule-based conduct and practical reasoning.
Confocal microscopy with laser scanning technology yields
in-vivo images of ocular and ocular adnexal surfaces that are so
brilliant that they rival histology in terms of quality.This unique
atlas and textbook demonstrates normal in-vivo anatomy of the
cornea, limbus and conjunctiva, quantifies various cellular
structures using cell-density calculations and establishes
correlations between novel optical sections of various diseases of
the ocular surface and clinical findings. Furthermore, it supports
the interpretation of novel high-magnification optical sections by
comparing corneal and conjunctival imprint cytology with in-vivo
images and describes early inflammatory changes in corneal grafts,
as well as corneal conjunctivalisation in limbal stem cell
deficiency, corneal dystrophies or infections, flap interface and
margin characteristics after laser in-situ keratomileusis (LASIK).
In addition, it instructs the reader about diagnostic and
therapeutic follow-up strategies and provides a brief introduction
to applications in other fields such as dentistry and ear, nose and
throat surgery.
First published in 1950, this was a new work by Charles Baudouin,
world-famous French psychologist and takes its title from the
opening chapter, which examines the transformation of the myth of
Progress, characteristic of the eighteenth and nineteenth
centuries, into the myth of Modernity, characteristic of the time
of writing. The author has little sympathy for a development which
he regards as essentially vulgar; the myth of Progress, he says,
had its aspiration and gave man reasons for reaching out for better
things, but the myth of Modernity 'seems to give humanity reasons
only for fleeing from itself, reasons for unhappiness, inasmuch as
the man who runs away from himself is an unhappy man'. This chapter
is characteristic of those that follow - on Baudelaire, Verlaine
and other literary topics; on Art and the Epoch, The Prestige of
Action, Technique versus Mysticism, Opinion and Tolerance, etc. A
broad humanity and a gentle irony are the characteristic features
of this simulating book, now available again to be enjoyed in its
historical context.
