Hypnoanalytic Techniques, Vol. II, The Practice of Clinical Hypnosis is directed to psychoanalysts and other dynamically-oriented therapists who are already familiar with clinical hypnosis, its induction and use in suggestive approaches to treatment. Hypnoanalysis is presented in the context of psychoanalysis and object-relation theory. It details many projective techniques and others for hypnotically dealing with dreams and art productions. Complex hypnoanalytic techniques are described for treating a wide variety of disorders including amnesia and multiple personality. A chapter is devoted to Ego-State Theory and Therapy and another to Forensic Hypnosis, which includes its indications, contraindications and problem when testifying in court.
