Description: Leominster, MA: Boutwell & Co, 1917. Hardcover. Ex-Library. This book is an Ex-Library copy , withdrawn from the public LIbrary of Los Gatos, CA. The book is in Very Good- condition and is lacking a dust jacket. The spine ends and corners of the book covers have some bumping, rubbing and wear. The covers have several spots of rubbing and there is noticeable toning to the covers. The text pages are mostly clean and bright. There are four sections: As a Modern False Prophet, As a School of Philosophy, As a System of Theology, and, As a Method of Healing. "The church does not require that Christian Scientists avoid all medical care—adherents use dentists, optometrists, obstetricians, physicians for broken bones, and vaccination when required by law—but maintains that Christian-Science prayer is most effective when not combined with medicine. Between the 1880s and 1990s, the avoidance of medical treatment led to the deaths of several adherents and their children. Parents and others were prosecuted for, and in a few cases convicted of, manslaughter or neglect. ". Very Good- .
