Mary Baker Eddy (1821-1910) continues to be one of the most influential authors on the relation of mind, body, and spirit. She was a remarkable lecturer, reformer, spiritual healer, and religious figure whose ideas challenged mainstream beliefs about the nature of existence and the power of prayer to heal. Although she struggled in her early adult years with poor health and financial and family hardship, her deep love of the Bible was a continual source of comfort and support. The insights she gained transformed her own life, and formed the basis for the pioneering ideas in Science and Health.
