Paris, Mame, 1813. *** Première édition. Elève de Chastenet de Puységur, Deleuze lui succéda à la tête du mouvement mesmériste. C'est, encore aujourd'hui, la meilleure histoire du mesmérisme, selon Tinterow, Foundations of hypnosis, p. 575. "Ouvrage indispensable dans une bibliothèque magnétique.

Dureau, Notes bibliographiques pour servir à l'histoire du magnétisme animal 83. Bel exemplaire. *** In-8 de (4), 298 / (4), 340 pp. Demi-chagrin rouge, dos orné.

"The Histoire is Deleuze's first work on animal magnetism and is one of the most important ever written on the subject. ...
