Описание: Early in 1788, Franz Anton Mesmer arrived in Paris and began to promulgate an exotic theory of healing that almost immediately seized the imagination of the general populace. Robert Darnton`s lively study provides a useful contribution to the study of popular culture and the manner in which ideas are diffused down through various social levels.
