I was prompted to write this work by the results of more than twenty–five years of research in the field of suggestion and, in particular, the main question of philosophy, in relation to suggestion – what is primary in the phenomenon of suggestion - the reaction of the suggestible or the reaction of the suggestive?
The materials of this book in terms of describing the nature of the phenomenon of suggestion are mostly borrowed from the book by V.M. Bekhterev "Suggestion and its role in public life", with the author's comments related to the phenomenon of suggestion in reality without the use of any suggestion techniques in a state of hypnosis.
The materials of this book regarding the description and research of the phenomenon of suggestion at a distance are mostly borrowed from L.L. Vasiliev's book "Suggestion at a distance".
The materials of the practical part of this book are the quintessence of the results of the author's own research with comments and explanations.
