The method, which the author began to use in 1931 and perfected in the urgency of modern war, consists in the induction of hypnosis in a patient already narcotized with barbiturates, so that he reveals hitherto repressed, emotionally traumatic experiences and becomes accessible to the physician's therapeutic suggestions. A further, deep narcosis may be added by the injection of additional barbiturates to secure a restful sleep of twelve or more hours. The author is a pioneer in the field, and his method, variously modified by many others, has proved to be one of the popular, if not unfailingly successful, psychiatric procedures evolved during the war.
