Not a critique, but an apology.

This book is supposed to be a psychoanalytic study of Mary Baker Eddy. It is anything but that.The authors appear to be non-Christian Scientists have looked into Christian Science and decided that it is the correct explanation of Jesus's works and teachings. Although this book offers some wonderful intellectual insights into Mrs. Eddy's life and career, it is far more praiseworthy than antagonistic.Strongly recommended, whether or not you're a Christian Scientist.

Thomas is simply a genius

I am one of relatively few people who have had the enormous privelige of being taught by Robert Thomas - "Doc Thomas", as he was universally known. He is a man with an extraordinary and profound intellect, and an unparalleled ability to illuminate complex and intricate issues. If you desire an intellectual thrill, buy the book. Better still would be to take a class from him, an experience which in the course of nine months taught me how to think and write. He could sell tickets to his dissection of Dr. Strangelove. It was truly that fascinating.Doc, if you read this, I want to say now that you are unequivocally the most brilliant, effective and entertaining teacher I have ever had the privelige of learning from. You have taught me more than any person ever has, and given to me the art of analysis. Thank you, thank you, thank you. My only regret is that you didn't stay one more year. I know dozens of us would have been lining up for Am Cult, myself included. -David (no, not Big Hands who forgot his notes for the final)

A MUST! READS BETTER THAN ANY NOVEL!

An excellent history of M.B.E. Well researched and extremely interesting to read. This book really tells the truth about M.B.E. and Christian Science.
