      This book is a translation of Vnushenie i evo rol' v obshchestvennoii zhiani, first published in Russian in 1908 and originating as a lecture given at the Military-Medical Academy in 1897 by Russian social psychologist, neurologist, and psychiatrist Bekhterev (1). He discusses the definition, nature, and power of suggestion and its role in social life, describing how it is different from persuasion and hypnosis, suggestion and autosuggestion in the waking state, and their effectiveness for feeling, thought, and behavior. He also addresses the negative consequences of suggestion in terms of violent crime, suicide, witchcraft, devil-possession hysteria, and psychopathological epidemics of religious character in various regions.
