Publisher's Synopsis
"New Thought puts this current movement into perspective. Addressing both the history of the New Thought movement and its unique contribution to religious consciousness, the author has added his prophetic voice to what will gently replace the gloom and doom contingent of Western Protestant eschatologists who see humanity as lost and this creation doomed to a fiery end. The author traces the movement from its Eastern influences and transcendentalist moorings to a new century in which a true picture of human identity and divine interaction will finally materialize. The old liberalism of early 20th century beginnings is dead. What is taking its place and will replace the authoritarian model of conventional Christianity is something which affirms a loving, healing divine presence that brings recognition to a tortured human confusion of empty options."
