[An] excellent and exemplary study in the history of ideasProvides a commendable model for those interested in the way true and false ideas interact and broadly influence behavior. ScienceEarly in 1788, Franz Anton Mesmer, a Viennese physician, arrived in Paris and began to promulgate a somewhat exotic theory of healing that almost immediately seized the imagination of the general populace. Robert Darnton, in his lively study of mesmerism and its relation to eighteenthcentury radical political thought and popular scientific notions, provides a useful contribution to the study of popular culture and the manner in which ideas are diffused down through various social levels.
