The Primitive Mind Cure: The Nature and Power of Faith, or Elementary Lessons in Christian Philosoph

"The Primitive Mind Cure" is an 1885 treatise on the ability of the mind to heal with reference to Christian philosophy and transcendental medicine, by Warren Felt Evans. This vintage book is highly recommended for those with an interest in the power of the mind and the New Thought movement in particular. Contents include: "What are Ideas, and What is Idealism?", "The Application of the Idealistic Philosophy of the Cure of Mental and Bodily Maladies", "The Triune Constitution of Man and the Discovery of the True Self", "The Saving Power of the Spirit of Man", "Happiness and Health, and Where they are to be Found", etc. Warren Felt Evans (1817-1889) was an American author famous for his writings related to the New Thought movement, a movement originating from 19th century United States based upon the ideas that God exists everywhere, sickness originates in the mind, and that thinking "correctly" has the ability to heal. He became a proponent of the movement, during 1863, as-a-result of seeking healing from Phineas P. Quimby, the movement's founder. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive.
