Health and the Inner Life

An Analytical and Historical Study of Mental Healing Theories, with an Account of the Life and Teachings of P.P Quimby. 12o. Net. $1.35

In this volume two purposes have been fulfilled: it applies to the problems of human suffering a practical spiritual philosophy of the inner life, and it contains a dscriminative exposition of the more permanent and rational principles which underlie the modern mental healing movement. As the title implies, it does not claim to be an exhaustive study of healing and disease. Nor is its spiritual healing theory brought forward as the one unfailing resource. The aim of the author has been to put the inquirer in possession of the necessary clues so that he can rightly estimate the various popular therapeutic doctrines of the day, and select the principles which withstand the test of time reason and experience.
