“Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures,” by Mary Baker G. Eddy,
President of the Massachusetts Metaphysical College, is a remarkable
publication, claiming to elucidate the influence of mentality over matter.
Mrs. Eddy announces herself as the discoverer of this metaphysical
Science, and receives students, to whom she imparts so much of her
metaphysics as their minds are capable of receiving. The volumes are a
vigorous protest against the materialism of our modern scientists, Darwin,
Huxley, Tyndall, etc. Her Science of Mind was first self-applied: having
been ill and treated by doctors of the various schools without benefit,
she discovered the grand Principle of all healing to be God, or Mind.
Relying on this Principle alone, she regained her health, and for the last
sixteen years has taught this theory to others, and has healed the sick in
all cases where the patient’s mentality was sufficiently strong to
understand her teachings and act upon them.—_Brooklyn Eagle_

The book “Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures” is certainly
original, and contains much that will do good. The reader will find this
work not influenced by superstition or pride, but striking out
boldly,—full of self-sacrifice and love towards God and man.—_Christian
Advocate_, Buffalo, N. Y.

The doctrines of “Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures” are high
and pure, wholly free from those vile theories about love and marriage
which have been so prevalent among the spiritualists. This new sect
devotes itself to a study of the Bible, and a practice of curing disease
without mesmerism or spiritualism. It treats Darwin and materialists with
a lofty scorn.—_Springfield Republican_

“Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures” is indisputably a
wonderful work. It has no equal. No one can read the book and not be
benefited by it in mind and body. The work is endorsed by some of the best
men of the age.—_Star-Spangled Banner_

We shall watch with keen interest the promised results of “Science and
Health with Key to the Scriptures.” The work shows how the body can be
cured, and how a better state of Christianity can be introduced (which is
certainly very desirable). It likewise has a hard thrust at spiritualism;
and, taken altogether, it is a very rare book.—_Boston Investigator_

The author of “Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures,” which is
attracting much attention, shows her ability to defend her cause with
vigor.—_Boston Weekly Journal_
