Christian Science

Book • 1899
In 'Christian Science', Mark Twain presents a critical examination of the Christian Science movement and its founder, Mary Baker Eddy.

The book is a collection of essays that humorously and satirically address the principles of Christian Science, which Twain found to be illogical and self-serving.

Despite his interest in mental healing, Twain was hostile towards Eddy and her teachings, viewing them as a form of 'religious snake oil'.
