Christian Science
by Mark Twain
"Christian Science" by Mark Twain is a collection of essays published in 1907. The book gathers Twain's critical writings about Christian Science and its founder, Mary Baker Eddy. While Twain showed interest in mental healing and even acknowledged some of Christian Science's claims, he launched a fierce attack on Eddy herself, whom he portrayed as power-hungry and fraudulent. The work sparked controversy, with some calling it misogynistic and others viewing it as rational skepticism, leaving readers to debate Twain's true intentions.
