Excerpt from A History of the New Thought Movement For several years there has been a demand for a history of the liberal wing of the mental-healing movement known as the New Thought. This demand is partly due to the fact that the move ment is now well organized, with international headquarters in Washington, D. C hence there is a desire to bring its leading principles together and see them in their unity, and in part to inter est in the pioneers out of whose practice the present methods and teachings have grown. The latter interest is particularly promising since the pioneers still have a message for us. Then, too, we are more interested in these days in trac ing the connection between the ideas which con cern us most and the new age out of which they have sprung. We realize more and more clearly that this is indeed a new age. Hence we are in creasingly eager to interpret the tendencies of thought which express the age at its best. In order to meet this desire for a history of the New Thought, Mr. James A. Edgerton, president of the International New Thought Alliance, decided in 1916 to undertake the work.
