Publisher's summary

Based on the Bible, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures is the foundational textbook of Christian Science. It explores our relationship with God and the power of prayer in meeting all human needs. Author Mary Baker Eddy shows how the Bible helps us understand and apply the spiritual laws of God in a reliable system of healing.

Science and Health includes chapters on “Prayer,” “Marriage,” “Science, Theology, and Medicine,” and “Christian Science Practice.” The last chapters include personal statements from those who were healed using Science and Health. These healings include heart disease, cancer, cataracts, rheumatism, broken bones, deafness, and more. Even more valued by these listeners was a renewed sense of God’s boundless love and their lives being reformed.

Extraordinary !

I just finished S&H again, and now I am starting over back at the beginning. The book is over 110 years old, but the principles within are timeless. It is great reading and even better re-reading.

A unique classic for spiritual thinkers.

This is the most profound book on spirituality I've ever read. There is a spiritual logic here that I believe is unique to Science and Health.

It is clearly derived from the teachings and practices of Jesus, yet with a spiritual perspective that often challenges theological doctrine -- such as Jesus being God incarnate. Thus some Christians may call it un-Christian. Yet, it clearly promotes the idea that anyone can follow in Jesus footsteps, and that he expected his followers to emulate his life's example, even to the point of helping and healing others through a prayerful trust in God.

Furthermore the book details, and even teaches, its practice of Christian healing. The last 100 pages are comprised of letters from those healed by reading Science and Health.

If you're into spirituality and healing, or just curious about Mary Baker Eddy and Christian Science, this is THE book to read, or hear!

An amazing book

You wonder if this stuff is true, but when you get to the end, you find all these stories that people tell about how reading the book changed their lives. This book is about healing and about how you don't need to depend on typical material means to be healed. God is really Love and by understanding the principles of how Jesus healed, real people nowadays can be healed too. This book takes close listening, but it is full of phrases that stay with you and if you think about them, it changes the whole way you think. I recommend this book for anyone who is a searcher for something better than the current health care situation.

Such a clear vision of the Christ...

This book is everything and more in understanding our relationship with God. I could never part with this book for it is truly the spiritual interpretation of the Bible. It unviels a clear picture of Jesus' healing ministry.

Read andI read and reread and always learn more

I don't like to reread books, but this book, which unlocks the Bible and makes it usable, is one that I study every day. The first chapter is a practical guide on how to pray. The final chapter, Fruitage, is 100 pages of testimonies from people who were healed just by studying this book.

This would be one of my selections if I were on a deserted island and had to choose just five books that I could have.

It is well read. There are a variety of readers so I don't get bored. They have strong analytical reading skills. The vocabulary is not always easy and I've found their pronunciation perfect.

The theology I've been looking for

I'm very happy I found this book. well formulated and easy to follow. The kind of God you feel to be true in your heart but not yet described by any other church.
