520 |a During the past 10 years, the Christian Science movement has discarded large expensive public relations efforts to concentrate on the writings of the founder, Mary Baker Eddy (1821-1910) and the central role of healing. This paper examines this seismic shift, delves into the reasons for the change of strategy, and suggests a renewed interest in the movement’s history and other forms of outreach to help revive a movement that has been in decline just after World War II. Resources for this study are the monthly Christian Science Journal, resources of the Mary Baker Eddy Library in Boston, and the writer’s own research and publications on the history of Christian Science.
