Yesterday's blog post misstated some facts and has now been corrected. Here is a clarification.
Mary Baker Eddy discovered Christian Science in 1866. This month's book, Mary Baker Eddy: A Centennial Appreciation, is
a compilation of 12 articles published in 1966. The Christian Science textbook, Science & Health with Key to the Scriptures, was first published in 1875. Chapter Six, 'Science, Theology, Medicine', begins:
In the year 1866, I discovered the Christ Science or divine laws of Life, Truth, and Love, and named my discovery Christian Science.
(SH 107:1-3)
So, the centennial collection offers insightful articles on Eddy's influence upon science, theology and medicine in chapters 9 - 11, which may prompt the reader to review chapter 6 in Science and Health! Further research material about Eddy can be found on the website of the Mary Baker Eddy Library.
