Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sense and Nonsense of Christian ScienceThough the title of this brief volume indi cates specifically a study of Christian Science, the discussion aims to cover the broad field of mental therapeutics from the three stand points of philoso hy, religion, and experience.The author as undertaken his self-ap pointed task not in the spirit of controversy, still less of hostility toward any sect which is turning to humanitarian benefit those useful psychological discoveries which bulk so large in the science of our day. His purpose, frank ly avowed, is to throw the searchlight of eriti cism upon a subject more or less obscured by prejudice and distrust, much of which is justl fied by the palpable humbug, ignorance, and commercial exploitation which dominate and disfigure certain phases of the mental healing movement, to the end that he may assist in nu covering for wider utilization a remedial force of proven eflicacy. If his words shall enlight en the understanding or plant the seeds of courage in hearts that hope essly endure in the darkness of afiliction, that will be for him the most gratifying reward he could elect.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
