 From
its first publication in 1875 to today—125 years in print—Science
and Health with Key to the Scriptures has transformed the
lives of thousands who have ventured into its pages and embarked
on a spiritual journey. For many, it has become a reference book
for life. It continues to transform lives—one at a time.
It can transform your life.
The author, Mary
Baker Eddy, devoted more than four decades to communicating
a message of hope, healing, comfort, and spiritual strength to
the world. Her primary sourcebook was the Bible. She had
read and loved the Bible all her life, so it was natural for her
to turn to it when searching for healing and well-being. Her genuine
love for God helped her bring an inspired reading to the scriptural
pages, gradually revealing to her the science of healing underlying
Biblical texts.
As Eddy’s ability to prove
the effectiveness of her discovery grew, she established herself
as a healer and began to teach others how to heal. In 1868, she
was asked to help a woman dying from pneumonia. The doctor in
attendance informed her that there was no hope for the patient.
However, Eddy immediately cured the woman. The doctor urged her
to write a book about her system of healing and share it with
the world. Science and Health is the result.
The author intended this book
to be a guidebook on practical spirituality for anyone, regardless
of circumstance, religion, culture, occupation, education or age.
Science and Health explains universal spiritual laws that, when
understood and applied, bring comfort, transformation and healing.
It continues to be one of the most effective and enduring books
on spirituality and healing.
