Originally published in 1991, Human Suggestibility is a collection of papers that reflected recent advances in the study of human suggestibility at the time, including not only the topic of hypnosis, but also suggestibility as related to advertising, mental illness, forensics, political persuasion and the biological aspects of the suggestion process.

The book is divided into four parts: ‘The Nature of Suggestibility’, which provides a history of thinking on this subject. ‘Theoretical Perspectives’, intended to give a cross-section of theoretical viewpoints on suggestibility in its various forms. ‘Researching Suggestibility’ that deals with quantitative studies relating to suggestion and suggestibility. Finally, ‘Applications and Implications’ looks at ways in which our knowledge of suggestibility has found useful application in such diverse fields as education, advertising, forensics and clinical psychology.

Today it can be read in its historical context.

Although a growing number of researchers emphasize the social and psychocultural aspects of motivation and motivation theory, few books have provided much coverage beyond well-tread studies of physiological and biological factors and theories.Motivation and Culture brings together eighteen writers with a variety of academic backgrounds and cultural experiences to explore the way that culture impinges on motivation. Exploring topics such as personal values and motives, intercultural exchange in the workplace, the intrapsychic process and the nexus between biology and culture, they formulate theories of motivation that can be applied in the modern multicultural world. Contributors include: Dona Lee Davis, Russell Geen, Joan Miller, John Paul Scott, William Wedenoja, Elisa J. Sobo and Stephen Wilson.
