This volume indispensable
A Christian Scientist requires my work SCIENCE AND
HEALTH for his textbook, and so do all his students and
patients. Why? First: Because it is the voice
of Truth to this age, and contains the full
statement of Christian Science, or the Science of healing
through Mind. Second: Because it was the first book
known, containing a thorough statement of Christian
Science. Hence it gave the first rules for demonstrating
this Science, and registered the revealed Truth uncon-
taminated by human hypotheses. Other works, which
have borrowed from this book without giving it credit,
have adulterated the Science.
Third: Because this book
has done more for teacher and student, for healer and
patient, than has been accomplished by other books.
